    After SLF, Siouxsie’s the act I’ve seen live most. 

    Saw the Banshees and Cure on the same bill at Friar’s, Aylesbury, the day Siouxsie’s drummer and guitarist had walked out. The Cure played their set then Smith and the drummer filled in for the Banshees. Hope they got overtime.

    I was in reception the day that Siouxsie came in with Severin to speak to NME writers about the split - she looked so angry! I thought the bust up happened at The Venue in Victoria, or maybe that was a later fight? She certainly had to be pulled off one of them that night...

    I was probably at the RAH gig in '83, up high in the cheap standing area as it was a freebie. 

    Played snooker against Smith around that time also, at the downstairs room that's now Sway in Great Queen Street.

    Happy days!

    Seen Siouxsie a few times back in the day ... always excellent gigs

    Cure also good but their gigs can go on for a long time!

    I was at that gig too. The John McGeoch / Ju Ju era. What a show.

    Met her backstage after a gig in at Shepherds Bush, just mesmerising. Also met Robert Smith, told me there was no need to shake when I shook his hand. Attending a Morrisey gig with 2 of DM, then meeting the man himself was play off final material!

    Robert Smith looked like something from outer space. Some 9f their songs are awesome some just plain rubbish.
