Before
Home
Before and "before" related stuff, including places, pubbing, gigs and posts about before. If you have something to contribute concerning before that is not mentioned here, please chip in. Particularly if you have something to contribute concerning local pubbing or other places, home brew, ale, or appley goodness. Cheers.
This is my personal site, so if you search here for pubbing or other places it will only return before pubbing / places I have been to or plan to go to. Fingers crossed it will return those anyway...If you are interested in a more general search please try before on 'Folkestone Gerald, where I list national and international places...

Six By Seven Plus ...Trail Of Dead, awesome. There was another Trail of Dead show just days before this, not sure it's the Highbury Garage show I'm thinking of buy maybe. Astoria
The Tears plus The Subways. First official gig for Brett Anderson and Bernard Butler's new band, though they went and did a couple of sneaky warmups before this in Oxford and somewhere else. Not that great really. Heaven
WASP Not sure what day, the ticket is very faded... Zed Yago supported, this site says REM played there only two days before, I did pick the gigs to go to... Portsmouth Guildhall
The Tears Brett Anderson and Bernard Butler, weren't they in a band together before? One of the NME gigs, support included The Magic Numbers I think but we stayed in the pub and missed them all. Astoria
Paul McCartney Mothers Day present for Mum and Clare's mum, we went with them and Dad and Emma. Jim missed out as he has been to more gigs with us before... Earls Court
The Avalanches Went with an old workmate, got drunk before the gig and I think I went home as soon as the band came on. Electric Ballroom
Channelfly Xmas Party Before I worked there, I think there were bands. THIS is why I left the Wonderstuff early, doh... There was a ruckus and the police sent us all home. Barfly
Primal Scream Think I have the date right, sure it was the day before Oasis. Portsmouth Guildhall
Iron Maiden Snuck in, and got thrown out again before the gig started. Went home, having not seen the gig. Mayflower Theatre
