RIP Newport Centre

[Ronald Parp]

Great shame

Saw REM (my favourite ever gig), Wonderstuff,
Wedding Present, Inspiral Carpets, The Cure and the legendary Stone Roses gig late 80s and early 90s

The last time I went there must have been late 80's / early 90's to see The Mission. Gig cancelled as soon as we arrived. Wayne Hussey had 'a sore throat'. Or in reality, 40 cans of kestrel super and comatose on the tour bus. We went to the Riverside club and got pissed instead.

Did you ever go in TJ’s? What a mad place that was.

Went there once. That place certainly had 'character'

The guy that owned it-John Siccolo died some years ago.
