    Indeed I did

    Did you go?

    A truly fantastic evening. I was almost at the front and ready for passing out. I think that is the hottest I have EVER been a concert!

    The refectory building was not at all what I was expecting - very long and narrow.

    I didn't take my minidisc recorder, because they said the show would be available from www.themusic.com

    However, it seems there are no current plans to make the recording available. Sham.

    I saw Motorhead at the Uni.

    Yes....surprised you somehow missed reference to it - The Who were playing at the Uni last night to kick off their tour. Daltrey looks in good nick for 62.

    RE: Live at Leeds revisited then

    Yes - they were asked to unveil a plaque commemorating "Live at Leeds" and from that came they idea to do the gig. A couple of guys at work went.

    The Motorhead gig at Leeds Uni I went to was on the "Another Perfect Day" tour so around 1983

    Exactly

    They didn't attempt to duplicate the set list though. It was was just a warmup show for the current tour.

    I was extremely lucky to get a ticket from a guy at work.

    The touts were asking £125 outside (but they didn't seem to be shifting many).

    Indeed. But Christ, what a long time ago.
