Portsmouth Wedgewood Rooms 147b Albert Rd, Southsea, Hampshire PO4 0JW
I saw them the following day in London. I was actually ON TOUR myself with nme.com on this day!
I was not at this one afaik, but if I keep a log of what I was not at it helps figure out out I was at.
I saw Wedding Present at least 5 times; Gosport Festival 94 @ Walpole Park (Gosport) (1994), Phoenix 1995 @ Avon Park Raceway (1995), Reading Festival ('96), ULU (1997), and The Booking Hall ('17), though I still have some bragging tagging to do so this may go up.
