Iron Maiden 6.5 Hammersmith Odeon 18 Oct 1990 Was on a training course in Hounslow, turned up too late for support band Wolfsbane, and anyway we had no tickets, but got given some by someone outside, I am sure it was Tommy Vance. Apparently we saw Jonathon King there too.
Rate Iron Maiden
The Tears 5 Astoria 16 Feb 2005 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.

Rate WASP
Brian Wilson Royal Festival Hall 10 Jun 2002 Yes of the Beach Boys, one to tick off the list. He was a bit unsteady on his feet but he had great support in recreating the perfect sound.
