Bloody Well Write
SCRIPT FOR A TEAR OF JOY
Just read your excellent Marillion feature in Prog 104, and it certainly brings back memories. I was at the Marquee when they supported Spider (Sunday, January 3 1982), and their first headline gig on January 25.
But they also played a gig at The Starlight Rooms, West Hampstead on January 27, with Pallas as support. That was where I got the demo cassette, and also this poster, which I’ve always loved.
I saw them 20 times in ’82 – would have been 21, but for an Asia show at Wembley Arena.
By a quirk of fate, I am also now married to a Margaret!
Prog on!
