I have in front of me the drawing of the lighting design for the above gig, and on the back is a hastily written set list. I had already remembered that we all put way too much stuff in there.
This gig was also known as The Savoy Club and was upstairs above a pub called The Boston Arms which I think is still running.
Jim Parsons of Tiger Hire did the PA as usual, and had asked a guy called Mick Anthony to bring extra kit, just some more speakers I think plus amps to suit. When Jim turned up he found Mick had emptied his whole truck in there and piled it high, the PA was absurd for the size of room!
I had brought a total of 80 lights plus smoke and strobes, I dread to think what the power supply was like as it was always lacking in these little dives. According to this drawing we had a pipe across the back with a black drape, the band's logo behind the drum kit, various vertical bars of lights either side of that, plus the dragon banners at the outer edges.
As was usual for me much of the rest of the lights were on the floor.
The set list as written differs from the list on this site only in as much as my list doesn't show Propaganda as the last encore.
I have no idea at all if any photos exist, these days are so different with digital cameras and the chance to take that shot over again till you get it right.
And if Mick Anthony ever reads this, I have never forgotten nor forgiven him for painting a huge dick in white paint on one of my flight cases!
Excuse the rambling...
