He said that most of the old groups wouldn't play there anytmore (though I saw The Damned there late '79) and reckoned that the newer ones weren't very good, except for Joy Division, Wire, Teardrops and (I think) the Bunnymen. He looked like he'd had a few rough years in the interim, bless him, but he obviously had impeccable tast!

It was shut down as a tax dodge and reopened a few weeks later as Brady's. Exactly the same. Still stank of piss. Went on till mid-81 in that form. Wish there was a way of getting advance warnings about Granada-only programmes like that. You can get all the regional channels anywhere in the UK on Sky by manually adding the channels.
