Guns n' Roses Izzy Stradlin's last ever show. Support Nine Inch Nails and Skid Row - Sebastian Bach swore too much and got them barred for life. Wembley Stadium
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
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
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
New Order Pissed down with rain. Crystal, Transmission, Regret, Ceremony, 60 Miles An Hour, Atmosphere, Brutal, Close Range, She's Lost Control, Bizarre Love Triangle, True Faith, Temptation, Love Will Tear Us Apart, (Encore) Digital (with John Simm), Blue Mond Finsbury Park
Travis With Starsailor and Ryan Adams and I think Remy Zero. A Warchild benefit night, I quite literally have the t-shirt for this one mate. Astoria
The Darkness NME On night, with Kennedy Soundtrack Barfly
Transvision Vamp Second time seeing them here, Sinead O'Connor was there too. Portsmouth Guildhall
Wolfsbane Found the ticket now! I went to the gig on my own, then got the last train up to Rugby, where I was staying for college. Can't find details anywhere online. Much stage diving, one of my favourite gig.s The Marquee
Travis plus Kings Of Leon who were OK, Travis a bit boring. VERY annoyed by the Carling-ness of it all and so we left early to get a proper drink. Alexandra Palace
