Small Club At Marquee

 

From: Colin Dod
Date: April 1999

There was a full European and UK tour to back up 3SL. Although I can't remember the exact number of dates you should be able to check this out easily enough with all the gig listings around on the net. I was at the Marquee gig and at the time we were a little disappointed, having seen the exact same set four times already on the tour. We had thought that it was going to be a warm up for the Milton Keynes show with Peter. However, it was still good to be able to get so close to the stage for a change. In those days they used to pack in as many as they could at the Marquee, which for anyone who never went there was only slightly bigger than your average shoebox. However, on this night they decided to limit the crowd to the official capacity of around 300. The gig was supposed to be secret of course but so many realised who the Garden Wall really were that for most of the afternoon and evening the street outside was blocked with people trying to get a ticket.
