I was at that gig. Loved Rip, Rig and Panic.

Was amazed when they turned up on an episode of The Young Ones

I was at this. Fantastic mayhem. :)

I must have got there late, as I don't remember seeing Frankie either, but I read somewhere it was their first gig.

I was at that gig as well. I loved Rip Rig and Panic, but was also impressed by the support group - an as then unknown group called Frankie Goes to Hollywood. When they finally released a record about a year later, I must admit to being a bit disappointed that it was so over-produced and didn't capture their live energy... but then what do I know - they had three consecutive number ones!
