Even worse it was on the Be Here Now tour when they'd lost the tiny appeal they had in the first place.<br /><br />In my defence, it was a free ticket, and Travis were very good in support. One of my greatest regrets in life is that Liam Gallagher walked directly below us through the arena tunnel and I didn't drop a sharp object on his head. That regret will stay in my mind forever, up with the day that Louise prevented me from punching Michael McIntyre when he ran past us on a street in Clapham.<br /><br />As to your list, experience tells me that the most obvious wrong answers will actually turn out to be true. With that in mind... Abba? You're not that much older than me and they last toured in 1980, so you must have been pretty young if you did go see them.
