Gig memories

Post by dcj »

Can anyone help me with my gig amnesia? I used to got to loads of gigs in the late 80,s early 90,s but although I remember groups I,ve seen I cant remember who they were supported by or if they were support. They were more or less all at Nottingham Rock City btw.
Here goes:
Not sure if support or headline:
Saraya
Romeos Daughter
Femme Fatale
Kiss of the Gypsy

Headline but who supported?:
Great White (Hooked tour)
Dan Reed Network (Slam tour)
Diamond Head Late 90s early 00s but Sean Harris was still with them.
Mr Big (Lean into it)
FM(Tough it Out tour)
Cinderella(Nottingham Royal Center) Long Cold Winter tour I think

Theres bound to be more but I cant remember right now, I,ll edit as I go along.

I,ve never seen White Sister although I had their Fashion by Passion album when it first came out. Unless they played other shows to Rock City.

If the concert was at the Royal Centre, I think it would've been the 'Heartbreak Station' tour. The support band there was Slaughter.

Tbh all I can remember was Tom Keifer had a piano lowered to the stage for a few songs. Think it probably was the HS tour but cant remember whether I saw Slaughter or not(never a fan so could have been in the bar for them.)

That Dan Reed gig on the 'Slam' tour had Jagged Edge as support.

One of my all-time favourite all-time gigs of all-time. Of all time.

Cant remember seeing Stage Dolls(I had a couple of their albums at the time) and I saw Mr Big twice on the tour at Sheffield CH and Rock City

I know I,ve seen Jagged Edge at Rock City so that was probably then with DRN. I think it was JE supported DL ROTH as a late replacement for Warrant after Jani Laine injured himself falling offstage at another show.
Dan Reed Network definitely one of my most memorable shows, saw them a few times before then supporting Bon Jovi but really came into their own as a headliner. Met the group at Wayahead records and got a leather jacket signed by them although DR seemed a bit reluctant as I had a BJ skull and crossbones emblem on the back.(awaits flak). :mrgreen:

Jani Lane actually stage dived (Think it was at the NEC arena, second night) and nobody bothered to catch him.
