I played the 'Alternative Ulster' 7" to death after finding it in my Dads record collection. The gig was fun, I was jumping around down the front with a bunch of old punks all night (I was 16), loved it. <br /><br />Eddie & the Hot Rods were great too. I only knew one of their songs ('do anything you wanna do') from a punk compilation tape I had but still had fun dancing with a crusty punk (who kept giving me cider) and a younger guy in a CIV hoody. I remember it very well for some reason.<br /><br />1997 had Boomtown Rats headlining, and I didn't go in 1998.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing!Philhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01922954446213044104noreply@blogger.com
