1981-10-19 Lawrence Weston School, Bristol, England, UK
Notes
According to an unnamed former pupil of Lawrence Weston School, Tony Blackburn and Peter Powell from the Radio 1 Roadshow introduced the gig. The broadcast schedule, sourced from BBC genome, indicates that it aired on the same day as the concert.
Jeremy Damsell, a former pupil of Lawrence Weston School, stated that the concert did not have tickets as it was exclusive to the school's pupils. He recalls the following songs being performed, though not necessarily in this order:
- New Life
- Puppets
- Just Can't Get Enough
- Photographic
- Tora! Tora! Tora! (Editor's note: According to BBC Radio 1's "programmes-as-broadcast" records detailed below, this song was not part of the broadcast.)
According to BBC Radio 1's "programmes-as-broadcast" records[1], provided by an anonymous contributor with access to a copy of the PasB, the following songs were aired:
The songs were not aired consecutively, and recordings by other artists were played in between.
An individual who listened to a cassette recording of the broadcast shortly after the airdate reports that the segment included:
- Just Can't Get Enough
- Interview with Peter Powell and the school's headmistress
- I Sometimes Wish I Was Dead
These two songs were reportedly live versions.
Unfortunately, the owner of the cassette is unreachable. Hopefully, someone else has a recording of the broadcast.
