    31 years ago today I went to the 2nd loudest gig in my life, Bossanova in full effect and quite incredible. But the loudest by far though was a few years earlier when Motorhead played their Ace Up Your Sleeve Tour in 1980. They had their Bomber lighting rig/strobes/dry ice and a sheer wall of noise, it was brain melting.

    • Glad your brain managed to make it back to solid matter! Loudest gig i've been to was Lightening Bolt and Boredoms at the Scala. My ears are still ringing todayIanbolton
