All of which confusion reminds me that I really need to get a tour history page together sometime for the WH site, as it'll be easier than racking my brains about which tour was when - it's all a bit hazy from 2002 - 2004...

Once

Scarborough Rock In The Castle

A friend of mine has been a huge fan for years and tried dragging me to see them before then and also tried to get me to see Silver Ginger 5.

At the time, I was having none of it which of course I now regret after she finally managed to drag me halfway up the country to see The Wildhearts and be blown away!

Since then I've also seen The Yo-Yos once ( nearly twice - had tickets for the cancelled gig )
Also saw Ginger And The Sonic Circus and have tickets for another.
Oh, and also saw Plan A at Scarborough too.

I would love to see The Wildhearts again some time as it seems I've missed so much!

*Note to self - Must pay more attention to friends in future!*

That was 1995, where they pulled out due to an absent Mark Keds.

They played the main-stage the next year, fantastic show. Fantastic festival in fact. More BritRock type bands than you could (sonic) shake a stick at.

Am not too sure personally, maybe 6 or 7 times to see the Wildhearts, including the awesome "secret gig" in Disco 2 at Rock City where it cost a quid to get in and Ginger handed us the microphone in the front row to sing 29 x The Pain!

Seen SG5 once, supported by The Jelly's, when they set fire to the ceiling of Rock City due to the use of "over enthusiastic" pyro's!

Seen The Jelly's once on there own as well, plus Ginger Acoustic twice (I think), and the Yo-Yo's once. Plus 3 Colours Red before they got their first record deal. It's hard to remember as a lot of them are very "blurry"
