Was anyone else at the show with Utah Saints/AE, The Mish etc? If so, does anyone know how much the t-shirts are going for nowadays?

Twas off the streets for shelter charity. I still got mine but I doubt there are many about.

I've still got my long sleeve but it's got a lot of mileage on the clock, I'd doubt it would be worth much.
I've still got the Utah's setlist somewhere in the loft, I guess that might be worth something? I dunno!

IIRC someone had a recording (Dan probably?) of the Eldritch/Utahs bit but it was pretty unlistenable. No offence intended to Dan's recording, the sound system must have been a shocker.

I have that recording, it is quite poor

there are two sources. I shared the second source in HL a few years back, so some people here must have it. I recall it's better than Dan's version, but perhaps not as long... i have no idea where i put it though.. it's on the end of a transfer disk somewhere

I should have it somewhere too... not sure which source though.

The sound was quite awful for the Eldritch/Saints set :-(

I remember the show fairly well and don't think The Mish were too bad, but that Utah Saints & :von: were awful. I seem to recall they were unable to practise for some reason

Just to restate my question - any idea how much the shirts sell for? I am thinking of putting on Ebay

Utah's forgot they were playing Wembley Stadium that week, or something like that.

I tihnk Cud may have broken the venue record for clearing the crowd away.

I was there and yes, Cud were s**t.

Got the t-shirt somewhere but no idea how much someone would pay for one.

Weren't Cud always sh-t though?

we spent the day between a pub up the road playing pinball and the venue so were well pissed by the time von came on. saw the utah saints three times that month and the sound was never that hot. we made a little 'pyramid' during the m*****n set and rushed the stage with it when von came on, so miss PiB, as she was then, ended up a few foot in front of von which was quite cool (but annoyed loads of other people) :lol: :lol:

we saw cud a few times and they were good value, just not that day. I thought the mish were worse though – new musical direction and all that

to reiterate, there is a much better source recording out there somewhere but I can’t find mine :?

Weirdly, Utah Saints were doing a musical workshop thing in a pub in Derry last month... :eek:

I seem to remember so. Who else played? I remember another dreadful band but I blocked their name!

Ha ha yes indeed - Off The Streets.

Yes Cud were beyond sh1t, Utahs and Eldo were pretty sh1t and i think the m*****n were by far the best.

A very drunken day anyway- I always remember a girlfriend of mine literally passed out face down on a half eaten plate of noodles. i thought that wopuld be impossible but she managed it.
