Many,many times.
Started with the Alice in chains support gig at Manchester Academy and the last time was the Scarborough gig, which inccidentally I thought was the worst Wildhearts gig I had ever seen.I nearly cried.It should never have happened. :cry:

I've liked them for about 12 years or so now and only seen them about 5 times. I'm crap....

Ok, if we're making twunt feel better, Ive never seen the wildhearts. I have a tendency to get into bands at exactly the wrong time in their careers, but I have been to a Ginger acoustic gig...actually, thinking about it, thanks to the shitty train service, Ive been to 1/2 an acoustic gig, having to leave during 29x the Pain to catch the train home isnt on....

it's troubling how bad my memory is at times, but I'm fairly sure that between 1993 and Scarborough inclusive I saw the Wildhearts 14 times.
In addition:
Silver Ginger 5 at the Electric Ballroom, Camden
Acoustic 5 times (thrice at Camden Barfly, once at Winchester and once in St Albans).
Ginger's 40th at the Marquee (shit venue, shit-hot gig)
Sonic Circus at the Garage

And I still worry about the ones i missed. :roll:

Yeah. I was living in Manchester at the time. Probably the only time I've ever been glad a train was an hour late cause we'd have been sleeping on the station until the next morning otherwise!

All seems so long ago now!

Right, i've had a bit of a think (you can tell i'm busy right?) and i think this is roughly the right order:
Kentish Town Forum - Supporting The Almighty
Forum - (they filmed the suckerpunch video)
(the next 5 may not be in the right order)
Brixton Academy
London Astoria (Xmas gig)
Ilford Island - 3CR supporting
Finsbury Park - Sex Pistols Filthy Lucre tour
Phoenix Festival - later that summer
Cambridge Junction - Reunion tour
London Astoria - Darkness supporting
Guilfest - Alice Cooper headlining
Forum (again) - I remember I hung off the back of the sound desk for most of this one)
Hammersmith Palais - Therapy? supporting
Hammersmith Apollo - supoorting Motorhead
London Astoria - what should have been the DVD one
Rock In The Castle, Scarborough
