Funny you should say that. I too saw Transvision Vamp, but this one was in London. Absolutely appalling. One of the worst live acts i've ever seen. I only went to see what all the fuss was about (yes I do mean the lead singers tits and skimpy outfits).

God this makes me sad, to think there was a huge music venue like this is Cornwall up until not that long ago (ish) and I missed it, and never got to experience it.
