Don't be sad about that - he's awesome!! I've seen him twice, once at Birmingham NEC and once at Althorp Park - and when I see him on somewhere thats convenient - I'll defo be going to see him again!!!

Mine was a festival in Fort Erie, Ontario...

Bare Naked Ladies, The Waltons, Billy Bragg, Wild Strawberries, Moxy Fruvous... there were more...

I think I was 13, and I went with my older cousins, they hated me and I hated them so I just ran off as soon as I got there. After everything was over I met them back at my cousin's car and she was SO MAD. We never did anything together again.

Well..... I could try and make up something that sounded ultra cool - but in fact it was Shakin Stevens!!!! laugh.gif - maybe you've never even heard of him. Oh my word - for some unknown reason I was besotted by him and had every inch of my bedroom wall covered in posters of him!!

He was the first concert I went to - aged 8 as I was a member of his fan club and went by special invitation!!! Also meant I got my mug on TV in his top of the pops video and his annual - which was a BIG deal to me at the time laugh.gif

I've never heard of Shakin Stevens but its cute that you were a member of his fan club - fan clubs were all the rage when i was in primary school/ early highschool but i dont think they are these days....
