The idea behind the Dundee Gig Time Machine is for it to be an extension to a blog I did a while back called, Retro Dundee.
Retro Dundee features lots of gigs relating to a specific 3 decade period in Dundee's past – namely the 1960's - 1970's - 1980's.
However, despite the large quantity highlighted on Retro Dundee, there were still far too many gigs to have given each one a mention individually.
Dundee Gig Time Machine now helps fill the gaps by presenting a more comprehensive list of gigs from this era.
Gigs listed here are mostly out-of-town acts who visited Dundee as part of their official nationwide tour - there are not many local acts as such because there are plenty of Dundee's own home-grown acts already showcased on Retro Dundee, which is continuing to be viewed to this day by the way - and has now had over 3 million visitors!
Needless to say, Dundee Gig Time Machine is an “ongoing” process and will probably never be 100% complete, but the info on it as it is, still makes quite a sizeable general reference source to dip into.
There are 7 gears below...
VENUES - every gig listed in chronological order for each separate venue.
XTRAZ - a scrapbook of added extras - adverts, tickets, photos etc
CONTACT - my email address and further info.
AUDIENCE REACTION - your gig recollections or if you have further info to pass on.
AUDIO - a list of Dundee based live recordings from the Retro era.
PLATFORM JAZZ - an area featuring Platform Jazz gigs.
FILMS - music related movie adverts from local press.
Meanwhile, delve in and start looking around by clicking any of the Time Machine gears...
