Eric's - April 16th - 20th 1979


Monday 16th April       Supercharge

Tuesday 17th  April      Jean Jacques Burnel
                                             + Rapid Eye Movement

REM or Rapid Eye Movement featured John Ellis, 
former Vibrator and member of JJ Burnel's Euroman band.

OK A bit of mixed up confusion coming up.
Handbill above says Thursday XTC, Friday B52s,
However, completist XTC fan site www.optimismsflames.com says XTC played Thursday and Friday.
But another Eric's flyer headed Thursdays says it was TJM records night with V2, Fast Cars and The Teardrops (no, not The Teardrop Explodes).
But furthermore:


I think B52s cancelled,, turned up a few weeks later (July 29th).  I think XTC may have replaced them - but not played the Thursday.  But I don't know.  Or maybe XTC played Thursday and TJM Records do was on Friday (less likely)



Thursday 19th April          XTC


                              or        TJM Records Show featuring
                                                The Teardrops
                                                 + Fast Cars
                                                 + V2


Friday 20th April              XTC

                                or      TheB52s
