Portsmouth Wedgewood Rooms 147b Albert Rd, Southsea, Hampshire PO4 0JW
From an old Melody Maker gig guide I found online... No evidence I was at this, not claiming it, possibly I was in Southampton this evening.
I was not at this one afaik, so if I keep tabs on things I wasn't at it helps me work out where I really was.
