Just watching Pointless with Iron Maiden and Showaddywaddy singers teamed up…which inspired this topic!
I have seen Iron Maiden numerous times with all 3 singers, but my first ever live band was Showaddywaddy…don’t laugh, it was a birthday treat for my cousin in the 70’s! They were amazing live and having 2 drummers sounded brilliant! Romeo Challenger did a drum solo and it inspired my love of drummers to this day!
So what was your first live gig? Don’t be embarrassed!
I envy you! A lifelong Jam fan here, but by some accident of fate I never got to see them live.
My first live band was Soft Machine at the Philharmonic Hall, Liverpool, 1971. I was only 13 so my elder brother had to go with me, poor sod - he hated their music! Next one I can remember after that was the Sensational Alex Harvey Band - and they were!
