Graham

Nice list Graham.
Couple more to add (only know cos I was there!!)
Wed 22 Feb 1989 Albany Empire Deptford
Mon 18 December 1989 leeds Irish Centre

Re Ship And Star..
In April 1990.Think they played there for 4 Sundays on the trot as Raffles United? Think these shows were used to test out musicians pending a new line up which started a new Uk tour on 5 June 1990 at The Doncaster Dome?

Tickets for Albany Empire and Leeds Irish Centre were £5.00

GrahamEd - masterful first post!

Does anyone think we could build up a complete list of gigs on this website?

By the way - FYI, I came across a little website called crazyravers that has some nice surprises - not least of which is an interview Steve gave to a US journalist (for Trouser Press) in which he puts the NME in their place; plus a great early article in the said NME (which is mentioned in the Trouser Press interview).

Thanks GedKen , gotta be honest, it's the new moniker that suggest its a first post- but I haven't been here in a while not since the Battle of Butlins in fact

But I think it would be a great idea to see if we can't compile a comprehensive list. In fact, I will take no credit here, but Ray Smith did a huge amount of work to build a list, I reviewed and edited it (even got Milton Reames-James to look at some of the very early stuff to validate) . I am posting the list below (if it will fit!) and it takes us up to Butlins (its easy to add latter dates). But what I suggest is perhaps having either Andy Fearon (or maybe Peter on his site?) set it up so that folks can add dates, correct or perhaps even add comments (anything they specifically recall etc, set lists etc?). In fact, it could be a major project...Leave it with me, I will contact Andy and Pete and see what is best to get us all involved in building the ultimate record of Steve and Cockney Rebel live in the UK (and maybe some Europeans can add other dates?).

Here is the first part of the list that Ray drafted and I worked on..(credit Ray). This takes us up to the Camden Palace show in 1984- the rest to follow (if you all are interested?)

Some of the formatting is screwed up on here so cut and paste didn't work too well- I will get it set up so we can ad, edit and supplement. Will that work?
