Mr Shard's comment about me and keeping diaries over in AATS prompted me to dig out a couple from the years when I really did slavishly adhere to the practice of filling 'em in on a daily basis.
Between 1977 and 1980 I was particularly active, mostly because I was going to an unbeliveable amount of gigs and knocking back the ale a lot, and I wanted to remember the next morning what I did the previous night..
Sadly most of my diaries seem to have vanished into the ether now, but '78 and '80 have survived, so I thought I'd open them each at a page and scan the results for your amusement/boredom/whatever.
Here's some drunken scrawl from 1978:
...by 1980 I'd dumped all the personal stuff and just got it down to a list of 'bands seen per month'. Looking at this page in partcular, where I only stayed in four nights in a month, I wonder where I got the money from, never mind the energy...
...and this was a typical month with nothing special about it!
Anyone else got any back pages that they would like to share for posterity?
