I don't really go to gigs these days
But the best show I've seen in donkey's years was....wait for it...
The Ukelele Orchestra of Great Britain at Wakefield. A truly magnificent show from start to finish. If you've not come across them I strongly recommend you visit their website - coming to a town near you soon probably. It is truly amazing the sound they can generate from half a dozen ukeleles, but the repetoire is even more amazing. Everything from 'Anarchy in the UK' (a real crowd pleaser that) to the theme from The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (complete with whistling and HOO - HAHs) to my favourite which is the best version of the theme from Shaft you will ever hear in your life.
Check them out.
Oh, and EDIT from above - the Clash were at the Rainbow in Finsbury Park
