Dandelion Market
April 1979
Sat 21/04/1979 The Noise Boys, support unknown. This was the first gig held at the market, it is believed that the Noise Boys got this gig because Tim McStay (Keyboard player with the Noise Boys) & John Fisher were friends. John Fisher was the promoter of the Dandelion Market gigs. The band would play this venue again as the Resistors.
