Southampton Joiners 141 St Mary Street, Southampton, Hampshire SO14 1NS
Legendary Southampton microvenue, site of lots of my early gigging. joinerslive.co.uk/. I thought it was called The Joiners Arms originally, I think most people did, and maybe it was at some point. Maybe it should have an apostrophe in there too. Famed for being a grass roots venue where the likes of Oasis and The Manics did early gigs. Slightly before my time but I did see some great stuff there.
I went to this one, more from this year in Paul's gig history. Part of all the gigs I was at from 1987 to 2024. It's an obvious step from my Best Gigs Ever blog post. Yeah I know very geeky, let's let that go though, I'm enjoying reminiscing about this stuff.
