Word Down Your Way: 15 minutes with Midge Ure about shows he's seen and played 

Midge Ure starts a UK tour in April (with Band Electronica) and talks here about bands that left an impression and what he’s learnt about live performance. This includes …
… audiences “wanting their pound of flesh”.
… lessons learned from watching Derek Nimmo in panto.
… “cheesy” stage effects - eg Bowie’s mirrorball in Space Oddity.
… Stan Webb of Chicken Shack charging offstage at Green’s Playhouse in Glasgow with a 100 foot guitar lead.
… being “a human jukebox” at Clouds discos playing Jo Jo Gunne and Sparks covers.
… seeing “The Marmalade” at a Radio 1 roadshow when he was 14.
… memories of Taj Mahal, Skid Row, Colosseum and the Sensational Alex Harvey Band.
… 10,000 people blocking Sauchiehall Street to get tickets for Deep Purple.
… and headliners who didn’t turn up.
