Clickimin Centre, Lerwick - 16th July 1991

[Offshoreram]

I was wondering if anyone has a copy or scan of the article published in one of the broadsheets (the Independent or Guardian?) about this gig.

I was interviewed, among others, by the reporter after the show and there was a decent spread in the paper published a day or two after the date.

I had a copy and I was trying to pull together all my memorabilia and cannot find that clipping!

I was actually misquoted in the article and the article was further misquoted in Brian Hilton's Biography, Let Them All Talk.

If anyone has the article and can scan me a copy I'd be very, very grateful

I'll check my folders of cuttings later.

ECIS Issue no 59 , october 1991 has an article reprinted. No source stated.

I think that's all I may have - I'll know later. That, incidentally, looks like The Independent.

[Offshoreram]

That's the one.

I'm the Instrument Technician who caught the gig on the way down from the oilfields.

I think I said something like I try and catch at least one show on every tour and this was the 20th time I had seen him. Which became seeing every one of his 20 tours. Journalists?

This was then slightly misquoted in the biography by Brian Horton

Thanks all

Interesting comment that Elvis enjoyed it more than Hammersmith. Those Hammersmith shows were quite painful if you went to more than one of them!
