This brings back some memories! Saw these at Burnley Mechanics with my brother in either 86 or 87, It was the first ever proper gig we went to I think. Got tanked up on Kestrel super on the way but the band were so late coming on we'd sobered up for the performance. Borrowed the "feature film" off a lad at college then left it on a bench by mistake. Think I still have a PFX badge and sticker somewhere!
Saw them live when they supported The Cult in Edinburgh, 1987. Absolutely fantastic. Have the vinyl album with no hole came out as a limited edition...obviously bought the one that I could actually play. They evolved into Apollo 440.
HELL YEAH!!!!! Bah, bah bah bah bah, bah bah bah bah, bah bah bah bah, baaaaaahhhh!!!!!!! Must have seen GBOA hundreds of times in the 80's. Supporting Zodiac Mindwarp (natch) Doctor & The Medics et al. Even went to the Town & Country Club to see their film Drill Your Own Hole, I think I still have one of the free condoms they gave away!! One gig at the Clarendon had loads of TVs playing looped porn, hard to concentrate on a good mosh with all that going on! LOVE THIS!!!!!!!!!
First saw them supporting the Cult somewhere in London, then went at every opportunity when they played down there. Fond memories of the Klubfoot gig, specially going through the turnstiles at the tube and seeing Tony and Mary paying at the excess fare window. haha.
I shall now spend the rest of the day preaching to my colleagues about how indie music were top when I were a lad, they don't know they're born, and the only way we'd ever see our heroes videos was for ten seconds on those erratic weeks that the Chart Show counted down the Indie top ten. Times were hard, and Sabria topped the charts.
@Long23 yes, yes, yes ,yes - i was always videoing those 10 second clips, and t'was years b4 i saw the full videos of these songs. I miss The Chart Show......:(
