Heard attendance was circa 1,300, Pere Ubu (supoosedly headlining) was...Pere Ubu and on first.

Much deliberation up to the 11th hour as to who was going to support who. Would the audience stay for the Prunes if the film was on first etc, etc.

The set up for the film was bizarre. One half was 35mm from the RFH house projector at the back of the hall whilst the other half came out of the largest model of Barco video projector available located next to the FOH (Front Of House) position half way down the hall. The operator, Marrick, had to sync sound from both the film and the video whilst running a time code for the band.

He was a good bloke as he'd brought along The Misunderstood's album to play whilst the audience came in and during the interval.

Top tunes !

The band were all blown away with the venue after the 'toilets' they played in up till then....
