Why, was it Rolo who you got the first " wear " from ?????????

Pat,

From a dodgy memory, I think it was "Ripples" by Genesis (fabulous song and one of my faves) and "Whole Lotta Love" by Zep. 

I don't know if it was the first song I ever heard there but Venus by Shooking Blue was one of them

or was it Focus by Hocus Pocus

I'll have to check dates ( years even ) with Cecil

Can remember the first fast song - The Whole of the Moon by the Waterboys. I knew the song previously, but had never heard it played that loud - it seemed to take on a new quality.

I mentioned in a previous thread that I also remember Wild Flower by the Cult - a couple of songs in, but memorable as was my first mosh, seemed spontaneous at the time, but then I realised it was the norm...

Slow song not sure - might be 'All out of Love' by Air Supply?

 

Do not have a clue as what was the first songs I heard at the Grove. But would say

   1. The experience of being there and

   2. hearing music that loud and it being my music. 

l heard "there she goes"by the LA'S on the radio yesterday,its been wrecking my head since,was it a grove song or not ? l think it was,but not sure,damn my old age  

have to say i cant ever remember hearing 'there she goes' played by cecil!!! that was my era and i love the song but never heard it at the grove.spose cecil would know for sure!  I remember walking in to hearing 'break on thru' and the last song i ever heard was 'come on eileen' .both have great memories for me.the first girl i kissed in the hall was called paula and the moody blues was playing. it was my first grove and probably her last as she was doing her leaving and i was in second yr!!!! how great was i??? never saw her again!!!!!!!

Very sad though Mick died in a car accident when he was very young early thirties he was married and left a young two year old daughter behind . I was  living in england at the time can still remember my sis phoning me up to tell me was really awful.

he was a great guy and I still have very fond memories of him.
