So where were Penetration in the Forum line up? I was in Nottingham for the day but could have got back to London for about 8pm if I could've been sure of seeing them (like rockgardenboy I would have only been interested in seeing Pauline and the boys + possibly the Subs). Also like rockgardenboy I saw the Revillos around ‘82/83 (at Sheffield in my case). Have recently had the fortune of seeing the Rezillos a couple of times in London – another excellent live band, although unfortunately Jo Callis has since left.

Hi Dave -
Thanks for the link to the Rock Garden facebook site - have joined up.
I am a Boro exile living down south - first saw Penetration supporting Buzzcocks at Middlesbrough town hall - fantastic gig. The Town Hall is a great venue - a great Dorman Long sprung steel floor as I remember - if you took a break from pogoing you would go up and down a few inches without trying!
Saw one of the Penetration Rock Garden gigs after that - another great venue - also saw Revillos there and a couple of others there.
Hope to see Penetration again later this year - will try & make Durham if I can.
Shame the southampton gig was cancelled
Just reading a bit about Pauline - hadn't realised she was born in Waterhouses - a tiny village in county Durham. I was born in Durham, but my Dad's family came from Waterhouses - sad bit of trivia - but its a small world
