I did see them early in their career, at The Roundhouse in Camden Town with newly four piece Talking Heads as one of the supports playing their first UK gig. I loved the first two Ramones albums so much, and Talking Heads weren't too bad either. 🙂
I saw Arthur Lee doing a solo show at Dingwalls in Camden Town a million years ago, after having a room next door to a Love obsessive flat mate for a while. Let's just say he was out there.
Most of my practice is done without an amp. I even briefly considered a piezo bridge for a Strat to chase down the pure tone of the instrument but the expense involved ruled it out.
Big city here means that neighbours are only yards away, up down and sideways. No complaints yet. 🤞
