When we joined the counter protest against the racist pricks screaming outside a Falkirk hotel housing asylum seekers, the police did nothing about the volleys of eggs thrown by the racists.

My very first gig-going experience was at the QMU: Throwing Muses and the Sundays, February 17, 1989. I think Pixies/Wolfgang Press at the same venue was the next one (on April 28, according to concertarchives.org.

As a spotty 18-year-old, working my first job in the Uni library, I practically lived in there.
Wonder if they still sell 'Redwitch' - a pint of snakebite with a double Pernod and blackcurrant in it?
