If you're old enough to remember seeing Xentrix in McGonagles....

Doctor J

... can you spot yourself here?



Found this on www.xentrix.co.uk, a pic from 1990. I always used to head up the front and stand on the bass player's side (the left as we look at it here) so I think I'm behind Macca in this one

Still, that brings back some memories

damn several months before my time but McGonagles....I hated that pebble dashed slanted roof - the amount of times I cracked my skull of it...you'd think it would have damage brain me given

Ahhh memories.

I was there, can't see myself in the pic (boohoo)
I would be the one with the cut up face from getting a ring and watch slammed into it while moshing. I was very very drunk at the time.

Good day's

Thanks for that

Doctor J

I still have my Shattered Existence T-shirt in the oul one's... don't fit no more though

Dublin hasn't been the same from when McGongles shut.

Which gig is that, december 1990? If so, I'm in there somewhere...probably down the back though. They played there again in july 1991 which was also brilliant...memories!!

Memories come flooding back.

Where any of you in the XentriX fan club. I won a signed record sleeve of the banned Ghostbusters record. Still have it somewhere. Wonder if it's worth anything.

Anybody pick one up at the gig when they where throwing them out?

Doctor J

Nah, I was in the Slammer fan club at the time, still got the limited edition 10" vinyl EP

NIBBS

nice lads, ended up drinking on their tour bus one night - can't even remember who they were supporting ?????
The Crumbsuckers and Onslaught I think in the Top Hat.....

great to see a photo of McGonagles packed out.....

Doctor J

Yeah, the gig with Onslaught was their first time over here, then they did a couple in McGonagles. I used to love the English bands who came over regularily, Xentrix and Slammer, Sabbat and Acid Reign... great times

Now if only someone has the crowd shot from the Massacre gig

Doctor J

Once I never have to see Rick Rozz in a balaclava again... that image will haunt me to my grave

oh c'mon you telling me you werent filled with girlish glee? not that I was, full of manish ale (well 7up really, was a tad too young to drink or stupid not to buy any)

Doctor J

I felt disturbed in a way I'd never been before, a fat, sweaty Rozz before me, wearing a balaclava and playing Corpsegrinder *shivers* :eek:
