Your 1st FOTN gig
Moderators: Morphic, Blue Angel, The Fallen Ones
Alright got both cds, have listed to elizium which I really like and Im trying to listen to Earth Inferno but really havent had a chance to hear the whole thing through. I was listening to it while I folded laundry, my husband walked in and was like "What the hell are you listening to?" FOTN is probably more his musical taste then mine. Anyhow I think I must have seen them in NY on thie Elizium tour, thats if they came to NY for one, it would fit the timeframe. Also I remember my friend Kevin was a tech who worked the Ny show and he gave me their first two albums(?) Im foggy he told me that they it was great music to drive to, which is true. Alright just wanted to let you know Im enjoying the music, laughing when I cant understand the lyrics, but man carl has a great voice, so deep. Kim
PS. cold as hell here in Colorado, 0, plus more snow, I did read that Europe isn't getting any snow, I guess we're getting all yours!

i would have to say that earth inferno is my favourite live album of all time, the first track going on for 15 odd minutes. utter genius and always played before a night on the town!! last time saw the nephs was at eurorock with a mate of mine, long journey specifically to see them! was not dissapointed! was buzzing for weeks. he's went the year i think it was playing with chaos engine. back stage passes et al, so wish it was a couple of years before!
Insert unfunny witicism here!
(A suitable first post I guess)
My first FOTN gig was sometime in late '86 (possibly 2nd of Oct?) at the old Marquee, London, aged 22. I'd been pretty musically naive, but some friends had introduced me to the idea of goth... and I was just starting to explore. A solo trip to see this band I'd only just heard seemed like a good idea - and I was just blown away. Cue one musical obsession. I can't really remember much from the gig as it passed in an entranced haze, but I do kind of remember Carl walking off in a huff at the start of the encore because of sound problems, and one of the uvvers having to go drag him back on.
Other Neph gig memories include: -
- Queuing for ages in rotten weather for another gig at the Marquee (Dec 30th '86?) only to see an arm drop about 2-3 people in front of me and hear the horrible words "that's it, we're full".
- Leaving Brighton (in '87?) during what I hoped was the last song of the encore and joining a mass of black-clad bodies running up the high street to catch the last train back to London.
- Making a whistle-stop tour of Germany in '93 - fly out to Frankfurt, gig, train to Cologne, gig, fly home.
I've got some old ticket stubs, but only poor quality webcam piccies of them.

electrostatic maybe?
Hey y'all,
i can remember many many gigs in bits and bobs (t'was deffo that thunderbird)! and im now feeling guilty for the clog wearing boot stomping behaviour. wasnt cambridge big seans (roadie) birthday and we all got twatted in the pub around the corner. i can remember linda falling into the bins... i was doing mushrooms with the welshies that day i think.
i have masses of photos of the earlier years if theres anyone out there who cares! and come to think of it, i dont think i missed a single gig for years except the USA tour... and for some reason several people decided to sport the tour shirts at the T&C gig even though they didnt go! i know this coz i wouldnt have had beer fights at the summer fezzies with them otherwise!
do i know any of you old buggers on this site then?
we celebrate here...

How do, finally stopped de-lurking and thought I'd add my tuppence worth!
Seeing as I was stuck at the far west of Cornwall (and indeed still am, thought it's through choice now!) Neff gigs were always a bit of a journey... so imagine my delight when, around the time 'Power' came out (Sept 86 I think?) they announced a gig in Penzance, only 10 miles from me.
The gig was cancelled (sound familiar?)
Hey ho, thought I.
Imagine my even GREATER delight when, upon the release of Preacher Man, they announced gigs in both Penzance (again) and Plymouth. Bought tickers for both.
BOTH gigs were cancelled this time... at the last minute, I think.
I was beginning to feel hard done by. I met people who HAD actually seen them live, and didn't believe them.
So I finally got to see them at Reading Festival in 87, almost a year after I was supposed to first see them!
First PROPER Neff gig was at the Fiesta Suite in Plymouth (Electrostatic tour), which was absolutely bloody wonderful. After that... 3 times on Mark of the Watchman, 3 times Precious to the Lost, and sundry other ones.
BEST one of all though was the warm up for Reading at the Majestic in 88; absolutely un-flippin-believeable.
And as for the next one? Hmmm.....
