The Proclaimers were a support band once. At the time they would have been called “plus Support”.
OP would have missed them. Oh well.
Personally I always give the support act at least three songs before I go to the bar. On many occasions I’ve stayed for longer coz they’ve been good - and invariably have gone on to bigger things. I don’t remember a lot of it mind coz it was the 70s and most of them are dead now
I saw them at Mayfair in Newcastle. I think they were supporting The Housemartins. Everyone was like who are these? But they were very good. Not long after Letter From America was out iirc.
