1976 Last Exit date
Posted: 08 Oct 2011 17:15I created two more Last Exit concert pages for the Police Wiki today, but I could need your input for one date. Melody Maker (May 22, 1976) has a small article about the 1976 Newcastle Festival. They mention one gig at the Guildhall for June 28 and then there's this:
"... and lunchtime concerts at the University Theatre Bar take place on June 19, 20, 26, 27 and July 4. Steve Brown's band, Tyneside J.O., Last Exit, Ronnie Young Jazzmen and South Tyneside School Band will provide the sounds."
That certainly doesn't mean that all 5 bands played on all 5 days. It's called lunchtime concert after all - and five bands would certainly take the whole afternoon / evening. So as I understand it each of these dates was played by one band. The only logical thing would be that the 3rd band mentioned played the 3rd date mentioned, right?
--- just found out that the Steve Brown Band played there on the 20th which makes all the thinking superfluous
