Genesis and Jethro Tull at different venues in Cologne in 76 or 77

when I was spending a year in Bonn.

In a different style, Ian Dury at UEA in 78 and Tom Robinson, The Clash and others at Rock Against Racism in Victoria Park in 78.

In yet another style, George Melly with John Chilton's Feetwarmers in 78, again at UEA.
