  1. And possibly not.
  2. The Borderline.

I attended this one, more from this year in my gigography for 1997. I saw Placebo at least 7 times; Mean Fiddler (1996), London Astoria (1997), Brixton Academy (1997), Glastonbury (1997), V Festival @ Hylands Park ('97), Shepherds Bush Empire (1998), + V99 @ Hylands Park ('99), though I still have some bragging tagging to do so this may go up. Part of every gig I went to from '87 to 2026. It's an obvious step from my Best Gigs Ever blog post. Yeah I know it's a bit nerdy, let's let that go though, I'm enjoying remembering these things.
