    I had a copy of this tape, played it through the Ramones PA system during sound check, I never saw so many pissed off crew members, they wanted to destroy my tape, I yanked it out of the cassette deck just in time. Was great fun for me, TG RULE

    Myself and friend were at this gig, we were still at school and had got into TG through my sister's boyfriend. Took the train from our home town a couple of hours away but arrived several hours too early and hung about outside the somewhat grim-looking Russell Club.
    Out of the blue , TG drove up in a transit van so we said hello and Gen invited us in to watch them soundcheck , chatted for a bit until some guy appeared (I think it must have been Tony Wilson) and chivvied us out until the doors opened properly.
    As far as I recall, it was a pretty low-key affair, no support band and a mixed audience watching with mild interest . I don't think it was a sell-out by any means - we were tickled that a ticket cost (not just) £1.30 . I think The Pop Group were playing in town that night as well.
    TG used an ioniser on the stage which would periodically spark and give out an electrical smell like you get on the London Underground and I remember a digital clock which counted down and cut the sound exactly after one hour.
    The following year we saw them live in Leeds, had our photo taken with Monte Cazazza and my friend gave him a Rowntree's fruit gum.

      @@johncassells6146 thanks for the recollections. I have been researching this gig as a tangent to some other TG research and writing. My understanding from a reliable source is that Tony Wilson wasn't in attendance - I realise that Johnny Hamster's original recollection doesn't suggest TW was there, just assumes that the person who ushered them out might have been TW.
      Also, and this is important, I have it on good authority that Ian Curtis (and other JD members) did NOT attend, even though most of the autobiographies by ex-JD members suggest that TG were something that interested them. My understanding is that IC and Genesis met at Hemel Hempstead later in 1979 when JD were support on Buzzcocks tour. There has been a lot written by Genesis, including his/her recent autobiography published just on his/her death, that there was a strong bond between Genesis and IC. This is open to dispute. I see a few posts below start to suggest that IC was at this Factory gig. I'm wondering if you have an answer on this! Thank you.

      @@iantrowell9123 @Ian Trowell you might be in the know already, but there is a Psychic TV song which Genesis apparently dedicated to Ian Curtis after his departure. It's titled "I.C. Water" and although Genesis sings it as "I see water", the writing of the song title is clearly a reference to Curtis by using his initials. I'm lacking enough background information to either confirm or deny that Genesis and Curis ever worked together or had a bond between them, but the latter of the two sure has been of big inspiration to the other (similar as with Brian Jones from the Rolling Stones, whom Genesis also dedicated the PTV song "Godstar" post-mortem.

Music is all that surrounds us...if we melt this with rock, we have the music of tomorrow! TG were early exponents of a new spirit and did exactly this...changing the terms forever. An open door for young artists that want to be more than just pop morron sheeps of the industry! In that meaning they are all heroes. With bravery & strength into the unknown.

      The letter was fiction. It was sent to Gen, but the content was completely made up. Doesn't mean that there has never been at least one burn victim just like The Hamburger Lady though.
      Also have a listen to "Slow Death" by The Leather Nun- tackles the same subject matter, but from the POV of the burn victim. It's more structured like an actual song, but that still doesn't diminish it's disturbing and nauseating content.
