My favourite of the early punk bands, THE ADVERTS were never less than superb live. I need to re-scan these negs as some of these are grotty, plus I messed up and plonked unnecessarily large copyright details on some, and those turned out to be the original files I have, so I can’t correct those.

You’ll barely notice Gaye. Keen to avoid any gobbing she was positioned at the back of the stage near the dressing room door.
