Live music - Bands you have seen/Are planning to see

Love Comes to Town at The Sydney Entertainment Centre.
Extension of the Rattle and Hum tour.

Yeah, 89-90. Nice. Just before their monster stage/stadium tours

Have always thought Nirvana to be massively overrated TBH. Couple of good songs.

Imagine the damage they'd have done with a "Couple" more....

Love Comes to Town at The Sydney Entertainment Centre.
September 1989
BB King was support act

I saw them too - the Ent Cent a perfect size to see OS bands back in the day . Was really disappointed some years later when paid a small fortune for tickets in the stand at Homebush and just too big - sound poor and watched it all on the big screen.

Last Kiss is shit

The absolute worst.

Makes me ill when MMM play it.

 

[Spartan117]

No better than Pearl Jam Black

Just reading this thread - I also loved the Entertainment Centre as a music venue, saw some great shows there over the years, and the Chinatown meals were a bonus!

Hey, don’t go dissing Black. One of their best.

Never said they weren't popular.

Talisman falling off the perch early probably boosted popularity a fair bit I'd reckon.

I was lucky to see Concrete Blonde twice ()Metro and Phoenician Club). Both excellent venues and they were fantastic

I was so disappointed when it was eventually knocked down.

No to be very very clear.

It's my favourite song

Totally Agree. Plus near public transport.
My first concert was the Entertainment Centre - The Eurythmics in 1986.
Great vibes and sound quality
