Despite the galvanising effect that the Pistols' gigs in Manchester had earlier in 1976, Liverpool wasn't impressed by Johnny and the boys. I've seen it said there were 30, 50, 70 or a hundred people there. One that was there wrote: <span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><b>Roddie Gilliard</b> i
went to that erics gig, not too many people there, mostly curious long hairs.
they were awful, broke a bass string trying to tune up. i'd read about the
singer having an answer for any heckler, but all he managed was "if you

I saw some of the kerfuffle they were making, and having seen the queue for the Runaways, thought there was something unusual going on, and decided to go see them!<br />It was a fairly lower key affair, with most, just standing back, waiting, but for the only punk like figure, Pete Burns! Spoke to Tony Wilson, in the bogs, who asked me what I thought of the band, and even Bob Wooler, had come to check them out! I was ambivalent, still wrestling with the B.O.F. tag I'd been given!!</p>

I just finished reading Bill Sykes book about Roger Eagle <i>Sit Down - Listen to This</i>. Its a good read and is a great example of how One Man Can Really Make A Difference. Eagle was one of the partners in Eric's Club along with Pete Fulwell and Ken Testi. He was the public face of Eric's, a Liverpool club which lasted less than four years but has become something of a legend.<br />
<br />
How successful was it? With the benefit of hindsight you might say it galvanised a city. Much of the best of '80s music music was forged in that sweaty, smelly basement - from the Teardrop Explodes, Echo and the Bunnymen, Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark (who all played their debut gigs there) and Wah! Heat to the KLF, Frankie Goes to Hollywood, Lightning Seeds, Dead or Alive, Wild Swans, Pale Fountains, Shack, The Christians, Its Immaterial, The Alarm, Sisters of Mercy, The Mission, Black and Space. For starters.<br />
<br />
It was also a dive. Some nights there were barely a dozen people in. I remember a Cabaret Voltaire gig where there were maybe two dozen. During their first song I spent the time pondering the fact that although their sound was cutting edge and far out man (I knew this because NME told me so) you could sing any Buddy Holly song over the top and it would fit. At the end of this first song there was complete silence. Not a single person clapped or spoke. I spent the second song thinking about this and decided something should be done. At the end of the second song I whooped and cheered and clapped as though I'd just heard the future of rock 'n' roll. And everybody else followed suit. I went home and wrote a song called Pavlov's Dog, so missing the second band of the evening, Joy Division.<br />
<br />
There's a lot of people who owe a debt to Roger Eagle. I'm one of them. There should be a statue of Roger somewhere. This is my tribute.<br />
<br />
Over the next couple of months there will be posts detailing each month of Eric's gigs. Information comes from Eric's handbills and members notices plus information scavenged from around the internet and books like<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li><i>Liverpool Eric's - All the best clubs are downstairs</i> by Paul Whelan and Jaki Florek</li>
<li><i>Bombed Out </i>by Peter Alan Lloyd</li>
<li><i>Wondrous Place</i> and<i> Deaf School</i> by Paul du Noyer</li>
<li><i>Head On</i> by Julian Cope</li>
<li><i>Sit Down, Listen to This</i> by Bill Sykes</li>
</ul>
<br />
The handbills have been gathered from all over. I've been collecting them online for a while and I didn't keep track. A few of them are in my loft but others have come from <a href="http://www.bombedoutpunk.com/history/bombed-out-1980s-liverpool-bands-and-erics-club-a-rapidly-disappearing-culture/" target="_blank">Bombed Out</a>, <a href="http://whycontrol1977.blogspot.co.uk/2008/02/bombsite-fanzine-1977-erics-gig-flyers.html" target="_blank">Bombsite</a>, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/Liverpool-Band-Posters-Photos-1976-2000-457243771013310/" target="_blank">Liverpool Band Posters</a> facebook page. The rest are from searching Google images.<br />
<br />
There's a few missing - January and February 1977 for starters - but it's pretty complete for the rest of the time. If anyone wants to fill in any details please do. The flyers weren't always accurate but the picture they give is sound. One thing they don't do is tell you who was on at the Thursday Bop or audition nights so if anyone can help let me know.<br />
<br />
The <a href="http://www.thecornpoppy.com/2015/06/1977-erics-mathew-street-liverpool.html" target="_blank">first version of this</a> was a straightforward list of gigs but this time round there's a bit more detail. Enjoy.<br />

<i>an aside</i>: </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Sunday 9th January</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: large;">Liverpool Empire Genesis</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In April 1975 I'd been to my first gig - Genesis with Peter Gabriel at the Empire. It was excellent. So when tickets for the first post-Gabriel Genesis tour went on sale roundabout October 1976 me & My Mate Dave got tickets for the Liverpool show the following January. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Punk happened pretty quickly. NME and Sounds might have articles about Punk but there were no records, there were hardly any Peel sessions. Hard to be a punk in a provincial town when you'd never heard a punk band. But then in October the Pistols signed with EMI and at the end of the month Neat, Neat, Neat by the Damned was released. Stuff started happening. The Sex Pistols went on Bill Grundy's show on 1st December and the rest is history. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Consequently by January 9th me & My Mate Dave were not all that interested in seeing Genesis - but we went anyway. Phil Collins had started doing the singing so they had the great Chester Thompson in on drums. He was the drummer on Frank Zappa's <i>Roxy & Elsewhere</i> which was pretty cool. We were loitering in Lime St on that Sunday afternoon and saw this bunch of guys walking towards us. Obviously we recognised them, and being 15 year old scouse kids, totally ignored Messsrs Collins, Rutherford, Banks and Hackett. Instead we bounded over (well, maybe not bounded) and said to Chester Thompson "<i><b>hey mister, didn't you useta be in Frank Zappa's band?</b></i>" </div>

New Old Gig Review – Eric’s Liverpool 1977</span></h1>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
<em></em></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: medium;"><em>Folk’s answer to Ted Nugent? </em></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: medium;"><em>John Martyn: If he’s too loud then you’re too old!</em></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: medium;">FOR THOSE of you who do not know, let me merely say this: John Martyn is Britain’s number one singer/songwriter. Absolutely. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: medium;">Without doubt. His fine, unique vocals excellently complement his subtle blend of guitar pyrotechnics. You heard correctly – pyrotechnics! (And if any of you Ted Nugent/Buck Dharma/Ace Frehley fans wanna argue, come right up!).</span></div>
<span style="font-size: medium;"></span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-size: medium;"><br />
<span id="more-7429"></span>After a plea for ‘a bit more juice in the monitors’ (which is only significant in the fact that it commenced a running verbal battle which the guy at the mixing desk which lasted for all of Martyn’s one-and-a-half hour long set) and a final drink out of his ubiquitous bottle of beer, Martyn went straight into an incredible version of ‘One Day Without You.’ Just check out those vocals. Perfection. Next came the highlight (for me, any way) of Martyn’s set, ‘Outside In.’ During this, he brought to the fore his whole battalion of effects – wahwahs, boosters, fuzztones, copycat, in fact, you name it, and Martyn’s got his foot on it. The way this song progresses is just amazing. It seems to possess a magical inherent non-verbal imagery, providing excellent fodder for all us would be amateur escapists.</span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-size: medium;"></span>
<br />
<div>
<span style="font-size: medium;">
After this song, Martyn Went about developing his rapport with the highly appreciative Eric’s audience before treating us to an ‘acoustic guitar solo’, and following that with a ‘Rock ‘n’ Roll Suicide Ballad (Traditional).’ How can I, a mere mortal, ever hope to convey the many facets of loveliness songs like ‘Over The Hill’ or ‘Make No Mistake’ or for that matter ‘Bless The Weather’ possess?</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: medium;"><br />
If your answer to the question, ‘Have you heard John Martyn?’ is in the negative, God help your souls. But it’s not too late. Quick! There’s still time if you hurry.</span></div>

The play opened in Eric's before touring around Merseyside. Shane Connaughton was an Irish actor and writer who played Gipsy John Smith in Coronation St (1970) and co-wrote the Oscar nominated screenplay for My Left Foot (1989).</i></blockquote>

Hi Phil. in a
nutshell, on an afternoon in late March early April 77 Roger held a battle of
the bands. there was us, the spitfire boys and half a dozen others. Roger told
the spitfire boys they were history and we opened that night for Wayne
County. From then on we played pretty
much every thursday, friday, twice on saturdays and many sundays until around
October 78, by which time we had outgrown the place. We played Erics well over a hundred
times.<br />
<o:p> </o:p>I will get you the first date as the wayne county bill is on
your blogspot. for some reason BMG are
blocking the youtube links to our records on the detour label, in the UK. It's not like they'll retire on the
publishing rights haha. We did appear on
some posters as headliners at Erics but we were mostly billed as "plus
support".<br />
<o:p> </o:p>When we got concurrent residencies at the swingin apple and
(much to our shame) Thursdays at the Wispa in Litherland Roger was a bit pissed
at us. But as he'd never paid us more than 4 bottles of beer each he'd had his
money's worth out of us. Unfortunately
we were young and nieve. we didn't pose
for photos or give interviews. That wasn't punk. The Echo did a full 2 page centre spread
about us in early 1978 and none of us kept a copy. I will give you more concrete dates.<b><i> Ian</i></b></blockquote>

like it in here lads its punk night” the bouncer said, but we blagged entry
anyway. The stage was in complete darkness except for John Foxx 12 string in hand
singing “I want to be a machine” It is still difficult to express the emotions
that ran through me that night, stunned senseless yet alive and tingling in a
way I imagined only a tab of acid could make you and all this on brown bitter! Next week we were there in ripped shirts 2nd hand shoes and of course safety
pins, our memberships for Erics said “does not guarantee entrance to “The

Kirkby and before that Everton, having never been abroad and my mum working in
the Birds Eye, our diet at home was somewhat restricted to fish fingers, pies

I had tasted. It was fantastic, about 4 inches thick and gave your stomach a
really good lining god bless you Doreen wherever you are! </blockquote>

he wouldn’t be alone for long as Wylie wouldn’t be far behind he was at the uni
but desperate that no one knew he was from Norris Green! Pete Burns was a

was a really nice and genuine bloke if you plucked up the courage to speak to
him (books, covers) </blockquote>

By August we had formed “The Destroyers”, Roger liked us we
played a Saturday afternoon and then stayed over to support Wayne County &
the Electric Chairs, now that was odd! Roger saw something in us we didn’t, to
us it was just a laugh (and we had no talent) he put us supporting some of the
best, Clash, Black Slate, Ultravox The Slits, and tried to give us advice which
we never took. He would introduce us to people randomly, one night at the bar
he brings up this tall skinny Irish bloke, who looked and smelled like a
pikey,”you two should talk he said” would you loike a derink the pikey says
“fuckoff nobhead Gibbo says” (people usually did what he said) years later the
pikey earned a few quid for charity with a shit xmas song and some open-air
gigs! </blockquote>

We never got paid, he would give us a mixed crate, lager (our kid got
these he was older) brown (gibbo got these he was bigger) Pale Ale (fred got
these he was faster) and I got the cider I’ve never been able to drink it
since! Roger lent us “Trout Mask Replica” and told us this was our future we
gave it back the next week we liked “falling ditch” but the rest was shit to
our young ears, god bless the Captain. We would walk to the front of the long
queues in Mathew street and never paid to get in we were “The Destroyers” from
Kirkby we thought we were fucking ace! I could go on but you’re probably
asleep.</blockquote>

<span face=""verdana" , sans-serif" style="color: #222222; font-size: 10.5pt;">BACK IN the archives and annals of rock and roll history, we
recall with some revulsion four other boys who once played the dives of
Liverpool with long fringes dancing a frenzied tarantella on their eyelashes.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 17.15pt; margin: 4.3pt 0cm;">
<span face=""verdana" , sans-serif" style="color: #222222; font-size: 10.5pt;">Real apt that these new improved moptops should choose to play
Liverpool; after all isn't this what Brian's boys might have been like had he
hit them over the had with a sledgehammer seven times daily as opposed to
holding their hands? Joey Ramone is much more of a Beatle than Lennon ever was.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 17.15pt; margin: 4.3pt 0cm;">
<span face=""verdana" , sans-serif" style="color: #222222; font-size: 10.5pt;">However, worse things first. I was surprised at how empty Eric's
was. And those present were definitely not the breed detected at London new
music gigs; I saw just one girl in rubber. Otherwise flares were the order of
the day - but a Bored Teenager is a Bored Teenager no matter the diameter of
his trousers and when 'Anarchy In The UK' blasted out it was the red light to
the lemmings. See them jump! "/ use the eNeMeE!" sneered Johnny and I
cursed in silent agreement as the ninety-sixth pogoer came to momentary rest on
my gold-strap clad foot (What, no nail varnish details this week, Julie? - Ed).
I need holes in my feet like Britain needs Talking Heads.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 17.15pt; margin: 4.3pt 0cm;">
<span face=""verdana" , sans-serif" style="color: #222222; font-size: 10.5pt;">Suddenly my homicidal contemplations are swept aside. Oh No! Oh
Yes It's them!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 17.15pt; margin: 4.3pt 0cm;">
<span face=""verdana" , sans-serif" style="color: #222222; font-size: 10.5pt;">Democracy, fair play and team spirit fall useless by the wayside
as The Ramones take the stage. I have to look into Joey's eyes! Getting to the
stage is all I know. Anything to get to the front; I stuck my stiletto heel
into so many groins it brought tears to my eyes. And they fought back; I got
cigarette burns on my feet and sapphire and emerald bruises on my arm to prove
it. But true love conquers all, and here I am at last, clutching the barrier at
Johnny's feet! Everyone had warned me how much the forcible assimilation into
The Ramones world of decapitating decibels would hurt, but I was oblivious. It
sounded great to me; practically everything from the two albums plus 'Sheena Is
A Punk Rocker'. The words are totally indecipherable but so what? This ain't a
Wittgenstein tutorial, this is rock and roll. Who needs sense when you've got
Esperanto? "Joey!" I yell. As if by the kiss of kismet, Joey
enunciates: "Dere's a lotta special gales out dere tonight! Dis is for
alia choo!" Ooo! It's 'I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend'. I clutch the fragile
barrier as one of my ribs gives way and the barrier collapses. Quick as greased
lightning the security rushes forward to replace it; no heavy handedness, no
abuse, and as far as I can see the kids in the frontlines are helping to haul
the barricades back up. "Gabba gabba" is the watch word and for
'Pinhead' Joey brings on a sign stamped with those words. We accept you, one of
us - we're freaks too. From the constant catcalls of "Suzy" and
"Headbanger!" one can only presume that a considerable number of
Liverpudlians are at present being headbanged by a considerable number of

On 30th July, a week after the release of My Aim Is True, Elvis Costello was due to play Eric's. According to an NME article the Saturday gig was postponed to 2nd August.</div>

In the afternoon Elvis performed for the cameras of Granada TV. This was the "private hire" on August 2nd.</div>

<span style="text-align: center;">I think the tv recording session took place in the afternoon, then a full (?) show in the evening with invited press. There were reviews in the NME and Sounds (<i>Sounds review below</i>).</span></div>

Nick Lowe's Ghosts - <i>Endless Sleep</i> live at Eric's</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
<b><i>Review from Sounds August 13 1977</i></b></div>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
Costello: candid Lowe: curtailed Edmunds: crippled?</h3>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<i>Ralph Whaley<o:p></o:p></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
Elvis Costello, Nick Lowe, Dave Edmunds' Rockpile /
Liverpool<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
Y'know, for a buncha stiffs, these guys sure put on one
helluva LIVE show. Judging by the exceptionally high standards of musicianship
displayed by all three bands, I can safely say that Stiff Records have well and
truly cracked it.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
First on was Elvis Costello, and let me say that if this guy
ain't the Next Big Thing then there's an awful lot to be desired as far as
brains go with regard to the general record buying public.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
This man is highly talented and a genius, a fact which his
My Aim Is True LP bears out admirably. The hype goes: "there are only two
Elvis: one is fat and famous, the other is small and languishes in
obscurity." Well, I dunno about him being small, but Elvis Costello can
certainly no longer "languish in obscurity' with talent as rare as his.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
His backing band are no mean animal either, and comprise
Pete Thomas on drums, Bruce Thomas (no relation) on bass, and Steven Young on
keyboards. Now, I don't know what kind of love-life our Elvis has been leading,
but if his lyrics are anything to go by, he sure has had a hard time. He's got
this complex which dwells upon his various inadequacies as a person, and this
comes out in songs such as "Miracle Man" and "Mystery
Dance." He's nothing if not candid about it, either.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
There's a sinister side to his songwriting, too, as may be
found in "Watching The Detectives," for example, with love quickly
turning to murder for the characters in his song. He's not so much cynical
towards love, rather he's just sorrowful that it never seems to go right for
him. Still, better to have loved and lost...<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
Those of us who were sorry to see Elvis finish his set were
doubtless overjoyed to see him return as part of Nick Lowe's Band, straight
afterwards, a line-up which also boasted arch-hippie Larry Wallis, on guitar,
but he was pretty low down in the mix to make any real impression.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
For some reason, the Lowe Band were on stage for a mere ten
minutes, which can't have made them many friends but then again, their music
can't have made them any enemies either. The three songs we were treated to
were all first-class, namely the oddly titled "Shake And Pop," the
autobiographical "Music For Money" and the dreamy "Endless
Sleep." But I think we deserve a bit more next time eh boys?<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
Now, whatever unrest may exist in the respective camps of
Lowe and Edmunds, everything seemed just fine tonight, with Nick Lowe jamming
along with his former colleagues Edmunds, Billy Bremner and Terry Williams as
if the regrettable Swan Song affair has never taken place.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
Eric's roof was well and truly brought down by some real
bona fide rock (pile) 'n' roll, and I am now convinced that Dave Edmunds is one
of THE R&R guitarists of all time (and he's doing it NOW instead of THEN),
and Rockpile are one of the best, yet sorely under-rated, rock bands this
boring country has got.<o:p></o:p></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
Songs such as Lowe's "I Knew The Bride" and
"Heart Of The City," Graham Parker's "Back To School Days,"
"I Hear You Knockin," "Mess Of Blues" and "Ju Ju
Man" were all performed with relentless energy and amphetamine overdrive,
and it all seemed so natural and easy, y'know? Like, Nick Lowe belongs in this
band, he really does. He's part of it. His leaving is like someone getting an
arm or leg cut off. It's gonna cripple Rockpile if they're not careful, which'd
be a real shame. I can only hope Nick Lowe thinks better of his decision — I
haven't enjoyed a concert as much in AGES.<o:p></o:p></div>
