Hey Mankie was that one a couple of years when The Tom Tom Club opened for them? If so that was a good show but The Tom Tom Club blew them away that night.

I don't think so, I'm pretty sure the time I saw them they were unsupported.
 
 I think you must've seen them in 2001, we were in Ireland getting married when they were at the club...the place wouldn't reschedule the reception so we had to miss Echo unfortunately!!! It was probably the year before that I saw them there.

  I saw them at the 930 last time and they were excellent, on my "one of the best" at the 930....I also saw them at Nation (when Bags was trashed) and they had a hard go of it with the sound. They didn't even finish Pretty in Pink and you could see Richard Butler shrug his shoulders as if to apologize to the audience. I think the Nation show was more of an equipment problem than the band.
 
 Echo more than made up for it though. Coincidently Echo at the 930 is also on my "one of the best" list.

>>> Yeah, Echo in D.C. is also on my "one of the best" lists.......Echo & The Bunnymen at The Bayou in 1980 for the "Crocodiles" album playing their 2nd or 3rd date in the U.S., ever........5 bucks at the door and a blistering show seen from the front row......"Been up to Villiers Terrace",indeed.....I have snagged a couple of the reissues......well done.....
