1st Big gig = Guns N' Roses / Faith No More @ Slane Castle '92
1st Festival = Faith No More / etc.... @ Sunstroke - Dalymount Park '93
1st Underground gig = Benediction / Doomsgame @ Nancy Spains '94
1st Punk gig = Gout @ MacCabes (now Freds) '94

was at a good few of the Saturday day time underage gigs @ The Forum / Sir Henrys around '93 on, but besides Mouthful and Heresy I have no memory of any of the bands that played....

I dunno what left over crack were like then, but now they are fucking shite. I like some of the recorded stuff. I just don't tolerate bands slagging other bands from the stage when they aren't there to defend themselves. They started slagging the Murphys at the last Galway gig and I took it fairly badly. They've been very good to Irish bands and I wasn't going to stand there and listen to them slag them just for the fuckin craic.

wasn't at the gig, in fairness loc slag other bands all the time, most deserve it, like rancid.

A local band called Revolver in The school hall in 1976, I puked from smoking too many ciggies trying to be cool
