HW: 1986 or 1987 Leeds gig

[Michael Crook]

Hello Everyone,
I was there too, it was definitely '87. Bob did play, although it was very early in the line-up.
I seem to remember that Tublilah Dog were the opening act.

All the best
Mick


> I was there.  Acid Daze II - Sometime between October 87 and June 88 - so
>Nov 87 fits that.  Part of a three day fesival - a spacerock day, a 70s day
>(Headlined by Gary Glitter) and (I think) a punk day.  Calvert wasn't
>there - Suicide played.  I think it was their last UK appearence until a
>coupla years ago.  The rest of the lineup's spot on.  (Acid Daze I featured
>Gaye Bykers on Acid).
