“great photo! i don't think peter saville designed that joy division logo!”

“Who had you gone to see that day at the apollo?”

“Will check out as I think it was around May 1978 have some diaries in the loft”

“I wish Id kept a diary of all the gigs I went to We must have passed each other so many times!”

“please jax.... scan some diary pages! this is such a great photo...”

“Hi, this is May 1979, not 1978. JD etc played the Factory on the 11th May and Throbbing Gristle on the 18th. Cheers!”

“Great Photo Jax I visited Wendy in Cork a few years back she still looks exactly the same,must be the water.
I look about 30 years older which is probably down to the cider!
Keep the photo's coming”

“I found my diary from 1978-1979 it’s had me howling ????”

“Saw Fischer Z at the Russell Club must have been the gig in the poster. Also saw the Dickies there. However, I don't remember the two bands playing on the same night. - Could be wrong though a full gig with the Dickies playing all their material only lasted about half an hour lol.
Anyway going to see Fisher Z at the Factory on Saturday (11th Sept 2021) lets see what's changed !!”
