My Life In The Mosh Of Ghosts
Every gig I have ever seen. Forty-odd years of thud, sweat and beers.
Starting in 1977 and currently covering 1984, if you are a fan of Sheffield music from bands like Cabaret Voltaire and The Human League. Or you like Industrial and Post-Punk music in general, there will be something here for you to check out.
I'm Roger Quail, I grew up in Sheffield and played drums with Clock DVA and The Box in this era.
My Life In The Mosh Of Ghosts
My Life In The Mosh Of Ghosts - Gig 53. The Box, The Marples Pub, Sheffield, 4th March and Heaven, Charing Cross, London, 19th April 1982.
Roger looks back at the short period in early 1982 that Sheffield band The Box played two important gigs with guest vocalist Stephen Mallinder from Cabaret Voltaire.
Mal himself guests to reflect on an exciting time of change and uncertainty in our home town.
Also, reflections on Adam Faith in 'Stardust', Tyne Tees TV, Roxy Music b-sides, Thomas Dolby live and some unpleasantness in the South Atlantic.
