As we're all sat around waiting for the rest of the 2017 tour dates with nothing better to do than choose our Mish tour venues, I have a question...
What were the first and last times you saw TSOM?
(On stage only btw, answers involving Asda at Owlcotes, Pudsey will be disregarded)
Me:
First - Oct 1982 Riley Smith Hall, Leeds University
Last - Nov 2016 Olympia, Liverpool

Suppose my 'always', which I'm taking to be favourite, would be:
Mar 1985 - Refectory, Leeds University
Kashmir, Dry Ice, Back-lighting, just rock'n'roll turned up to eleven with a knowing wink, and that was before they even started their set lol

first: wembley arena 24/11/90
last: sheffield uni 26/11/16
hadn't realised that one was almost the anniversaryof the other.
hard to choose a favourite from all of them, although wembley arena was the only time i burst into tears with the sheer emotion of it all.

Well I was handsome and I was strong
And I knew the words to every song.
"Did my singing please you?"
"No! The words you sang were wrong!"

Ooops forgot the 'Always'. Hmmm probably Leeds 30th anniversary gigs or the Belfast concert a couple of years ago which was great and I got to sleep in my own bed afterwards!

Torn on my "Always" choice really.
The 84 Top Rank one, as it was my cherry popper, will forever live on for me, but the following year, at the same venue, with it being Gary's last stand, gets an honourable mention

I think the best I've ever seen them was probably the two night stand at the Maritime Hall in San Francisco back in 1998. It was awe-inspiring.

Four strings good, six strings bad
Interesting. The first night at Maritime was actually the poorest sound I've experienced. The second night was transcendent, however. Seriously, I remember the heat of the lights and this other-worldly, out of body feel. All of this made sense in retrospect as I proceeded to experience the worst flu of my life for a week afterwards. I think all on the Dominion mailing list blamed that bottle of vodka/juice that we passed around.
