If you saw me now you may not believe this ,but i once told Bowie ,"to stop playing that bloody guitar we cant hear the records " in my landladys kitchen at a party (she was an actress) he was not very well known ,it was a good night,one of many ,i also slept with Cliff Richards pr girl or something like that she did for him ,one of many many great partys.

The longest gig I ever went to was Bruce Springsteen at Wembley and Leeds. 

The shortest was the smiths at Liverpool. 

As soon as Morrissy walked on the stage, he was hit on the head by a flying bottle, and walked straight back off, never to return.

,Stones ,Tom Jones Animals , Hendrix ,The Who ,Small Faces ,Beatles ,the list goes on and on ,i saw so many when they were young like me and they were not well known ,saw Hendrix in a club under a bar in Golders Greeen when he was unknown ,met quite a few at parties in the swinging 60s in London ,oh the tales i could tell ,it was great being young ,mind you the old fart i see in the mirror is still a happy chappy.

When I was a young airman, 64/65 time, we used to go to the one night stands at the Adelphi in Slough and saw most of the names on the go at the time. The California in Dunstable was also another popular venue and was stood next to Tom Jones one night at the bar.

I had an aunt in London and a couple of times went with my cousin to a club in Wardour Street, normally jazz but "Blues" on a Sunday afternoon, Marquee?, saw the Stones there before they hit the big time.

I saw Debbie Harry years ago at The California,and in the early sixties met Tom Jones when he was Tommy Scott and his group were the senetors ,they used to drag a coffin on stage at the start of their gig my father used to book groups ,then i went up to London in the mid 60s, and really had a blast .

The Scorpions

Had a pal who was a big-time metal head.  When he was 40-ish he got to see The Scorpions, probably at Oakland Coliseum.  Afterwards he announced his retirement: "I saw the Scorpions, it was like a religious experience, you can't top that, no more concerts for me." 

I got the impression he realized that he and the missus were in the top 5 percent of the eldest people present and it made him uncomfortable.
