Gig and "gig" related stuff, including places, pubbing, gigs and posts about gig. If you have something to contribute concerning gig that is not mentioned here, please contribute. 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 gig 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 broader search please try gig on 'Folkestone Gerald, where I list national and international places...

David Devant Album launch gig Dingwalls
The Fall A benefit gig for a journalist Leo Finlay, with Ash and possibly Tiger and Formula 1. Matt Lucas was there. Possibly Travis also played... Mean Fiddler
Suede Last gig ever! Played some great sets, the gig seemingly got chopped short, we left to the ghostly strains of "We'll Meet Again"... I hope we do. 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
Suede Fan club gig, played the new album, then a hits set, then a "wheel of fortune" set including best songs "My Dark Star" and "The Living Dead"... Electric Ballroom
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
