Saw it a few years ago, very interesting and brought back memories of old Port Talbot.

Saw a load of punk bands in 1977/78 at Sophia Gardens unbelievable the bands that used to go there that were huge at the time in such a relatively small venue.

Although H&S wasn’t a thing then, they used to pack them in, amazes me now how they allowed it.
 
I saw the boomtown rats there. Geldof stopped the gig at one point because a couple of blokes were fighting. He told them to fuck off outside and not come back. They did exactly that.

That night my mate went to see them at SG and i went to see The Stranglers in the Top Rank in Cardiff, it wasn’t unusual for fights to take place with band members joining in with all the stuff going on.
