Has anyone got the list of live dates the Shads played in the UK just prior to the Eurovision in 1975? I think they only played about half a dozen dates and on some of those John Fiddy joined them on keyboards. Somewhere I have seen a Southport concert poster, but can't find it at the moment. Thanks.
They played in Southport on May the 17th, 1975. This was a concert without John Fiddy, so with the five-piece line-up of Hank, Bruce, Brian, John Farrar and Alan Tarney.
Fr 23.05.1975 Eastbourne (Congress Theatre) – 20.00 but these dates are after the ESC (22.03.1975). Prior to the ESC they played Su 02.03.1975 until Sa 08.03.1975 Frimley (Lakeside Club) Su 09.03.1975 Croydon (Fairfield Halls)
Thanks. Interesting. So.., maybe seven gigs before the Eurovision Song Contest and then at least three gigs before the Paris Olympia? I wonder if there are any recordings out there from Frimley or Croyden...???
(If my memory serves me correctly, John Fiddy played on the pre-Eurovision gigs. There is a photo somewhere...)
