London - UK

The Roundhouse


Concert with The Saints, The Jam, Cherry Vanilla Band and The Stranglers. Sting and Stewart Copeland play with Cherry, of course. THE POLICE don't play.

sources: NME ad April 9, 1977; Melody Maker + NME April 16, 1977 ads; Record Mirror April 23, 1977 with review (Stranglers only) + photo outside mentioning Cherry Vanilla; personal information; Zecca Esquibel


There's a Spanish book from 1977 with photos taken by Salvador Costa. His photos of the Cherry Vanilla band were probably taken on that day. At least his Stranglers photos from this book are! Sting wears a CHINESE ROCKS t-shirt which was given away as a promotional item at least since April 22 (Walter Lure's birthday) - CR being the forthcoming Heartbreakers 7" with a May 20 release date...
