Trying To Date A Concert

Shakyfan

Currently trying to compile a list of all the gigs I have been to down through the years and add dates to them.

One which I'm trying to put a date on at the moment is a package tour thing called (I think) Stars of The 70s which took place in the 90s. There were 4 acts playing each night - Showaddywaddy, Suzi Quatro, Mud and The Sweet. The show I was at was in Maysfield Leisure Centre and there was also a night in Dublin (not sure of the venue). I could have sworn that it was mentioned in a discussion on boards.ie at one point a few years ago but I can't find anything now. Does anyone remember anything about it and when it was?

Both Suzi Quattro and ShowaddyWaddy Played in Ireland in April 1993

Thanks! Turns out it wasn't on boards that I had seen the details as the replies on the 45 worlds entry were from me.

And got the actual date courtesy of the British Newspaper Archive!

I'll be seeing all 3 of the ones with at least one living survivor before the end of this year....

Even with only one original member Showaddywaddy are still great live. Saw them last summer and again in May of this year. And Suzi was brilliant when I saw her around this time last year.
