(TV) PIL / JAMC Ritz gigs

["Henry Biedenkapp" <henry17306@hotmail.com>]

Scott,

I wasn't at either the infamous Ritz PIL or the JAMC gig.
But I did attend the PIL Beacon show in 84 and the JAMC Darkland
tour at the New Ritz with Opal as opening band.

Could it be after the infamous PIL show, that the Ritz then started serving 
beer in cups trather than bottles or are you saying you were
at the show and don't remember bottles being thrown at the screen, but 
rather cups?

Did anybody here actually attend either of these infamous shows?
Really loved Metal Box (aka Second Issue) and Psychocandy.

Henry
