Photograph of The Specials, UEA, Norwich,1979 by Tim Richards. Read his account of photographing music gigs in ‘Lost Rock Photography’ ,a Guardian Witness Series

This week’s prompt by Jude, inspired by her neighbour, Tim Richard’s great photograph of The Specials, UEA Norwich, 1979.

Write a piece about the first music gig you ever attended. Cherkasky playing Beethoven or The Specials, it doesn’t matter.  Make it into fiction, using a third person point of view or keep in the first person as a memoir piece. How did the experience inspire you or your character?
