I saw Ride in Folkestone in 1992, I believe at the Leas, used to have the ticket stub for date but cant help with that.
I also attended the Manics gig in folkestone at the venue that used to be the converted cinema. They had to reschedule the gig as James had a throat infection at last minute, leaving a tonne of Manics fans wandering round Folkestone. The gig was hastily rearranged shortly afterwards but only about 60 people attended as it was short notice and badly advertised.......But was the Manics at their best, did a fantastic gig despite the lack of numbers.

Former Verve members want to film YOU!
Ex-Verve band members Simon Jones and Simon Tong have formed a new group with Duncan Baxter, Mark Heaney and Dan MacBean.
The five-piece, as yet unnamed, will be filming a gig for the video to their debut single Quicksilver in London this Monday (March 4), and are giving fans the opportunity to be in it.
The exact location of the shoot is yet to be confirmed but people interested in appearing in the video should email zuma@zumarecordings.com with their name, age and contact details.
Zuma Recordings will then contact you with exact times and locations.
The band is:
Duncan Baxter - vocals

Hmm, bit more gig history confusion... This Ride gigography says Ride played Folkestone on the 21st March, 1992. Now I look into that properly, it says support came from Mercury Rev (and not Verve, which I got from somewhere). This full Ride gigography backs it up, so does this Mercury Rev gigography, and they all confirm that the bands were elsewhere on Sunday March 22nd and Sunday March 29th.
Mostly just thinking out loud here, and making notes for next time I can't remember where the info on the site came from, excuse me.
SO, the Manic Street Preachers date in Folkestone is still a mystery! Also where did I get the idea that Verve supported? Off on another quest...
