Gig List

My gig attendance list is below. I'd have seen a lot more if not living in Swansea.

I'll hopefully add entries for things that I can remember from the dim and often not so distant past when I get time, but for now, it's pretty much a list. There are loads of gaps, errors and mis-rememberings, but hopefully this will be corrected to some extent in due course!
