  • Pictures of Lily', ‘Substitute’ and ‘The Kids Are Alright’
    1984 23 October Hampstead Moonlight (anti-heroin benefit) Date: 23rd October 1984 Location: Hampstead Moonlight, London, England Supporting: Mercenary Skank, High Noon, and a secret special guest, who turned out to be Pete Townshend. Media reviews: Memories of fans: I am not the biggest fan of The Stone Roses but it turns out I was at their first ever gig. So, a mate of mine told me that I should share my story and I was pointed in your direction. So here we go. You can have this. It was the first time I saw Pete Townshend live and I was (and still am) an avid fan of The Who, but before I seen him I waited anxiously and watched the support group. Recently I found out that they were a little known group called The Stone Roses. They turned out to be the biggest band of their generation. I remember very little of their set. But I can remember them like The Cure. I remember how the singer was in charge of the stage. That was a week after I turned 17 and not only did I manage to see my hero, Pete Townshend for the first time but I managed to see, possibly the inventors of Brit-pop and saviours of British guitar rock, The Stone Roses. I saw the Stone Roses at Leicester many years later and there was a difference but more memory with the latter. I was speaking to a friend in Brussels who did have photos of The Stone Roses live at the Moonlight in 1984 but sold them around 1995 to a collector in London for £700.

Security forces dragged support- ers of deposed president Mohamed Morsi from the Al- Fath mosque, passing through angry crowds who tried to beat the Islamists, calling them “terrorists”. Morsi supporters fought a gunbattle with security forces in a Cairo mosque, while army-backed govern- ment, facing deepening chaos, considered banning his Muslim Brotherhood group. Three Reuters witnesses saw gunmen shoot from a window of the Al-Fath mosque, where Brotherhood followers sheltered during ferocious confrontations in the heart of Cairo on Friday. Another gunman was shown on television shooting from the mosque’s minaret and soldiers outside return- ing fire. It was not clear if anyone died in the latest clash - the fourth day of violence in Egypt, which has killed almost 800 people. With anger rising on all sides, Prime Minister Hazem El-Beblawi proposed disbanding the Brotherhood, raising the stakes in a bloody struggle between the state and Islamists for control of the Arab world’s most populous nation.
