saw the jamc open up for mazzy star in the states. mopped the floor with them they did! hmm i'll have to think of a few others although manitoba and sunburned hand of the man are springing to mind, both amazing
Ah the Rollercoaster tour, I was there on the Sunday Night, have to say I thought that Blur were diabolical (in fact the worst band that I have ever seen) but your right about the line up and in general the rest were brilliant.Originally Posted by Dublin12

Saw The Verve (or just plain old Verve as they were at the time) be first support band on for a band called Moose in January 1992. Moose were phenominally bad but Verve were simply outstanding and probably remain the finest support act that I have see.
If it counts Toasted Heretic on during the afternoon at the Feildh (finsbury Park) on the small stage the same year were brilliant.

moose! there's a name i haven't heard in ages. ah their 'country' album was great, shame about their live set you mentioned. verve amazing every time i seen 'em
When The Wedding Present played in the Parkway in Limerick in 1991 not only were they stupendously amazing -they also had Buffalo Tom playing support. first time hearing 'Taillights Fade' ...amazing stuff.
" I wish to God that someone would be able to block out the voices in my head for five minutes, the voices that scream, over and over again: "Why do they come to me to die?"
Never bought the album but have the preceeding EP (which was also done in parts in a very country style) which has the fantastic 'This River Never Will Run Dry' on it.
