Fodderstompf had
this date listed as January 19, but I'm thinking it was the next night,
a Saturday (20th). The Breeders happened to be on the bill, too, which
is one reason I remember this gig, since their “shriek attack”
elicited a mixed response from the Marquee crowd.
Again, I enjoyed seeing Wobble and company weaving their rhythmic magic
in an unlikely venue – remember, it's the same place where Cream
and Jimi Hendrix and the Yardbirds cut their performing teeth!
On this night, I encountered a more structured situation (security-wise),
so I didn't manage a close encounter with Wobble. Not to worry, though:
I made small talk with Justin Adams, and Animal (Wobble's ex-guitarist,
and now, roadie); I think it was just my way of saying, “I don't
wanna go home yet!' |
