Hi everybody! I am searching for a long time for some tour dates at the Avalon Tour Summer 1982. In my opinion there were at least two more dates in Germany (Berlin & Munich) in September 82. It s interesting that there is a gap between September 9 till 19... As far as I remember Roxy played September 12 (Sunday) the Olympic Hall, Munich. Who can help? |

Sorry FMP No idea....but may I commend you on two things: 1. A superb question; there's nothing like Roxy completism. Well done in your search for perfection 2. An excellent handle. Why has no one thought of For My Pleasure before? Nice. RS |

"there's nothing like Roxy completism" I totally agree with you there, but usually on this site when questions or threads of this nature appear you'll find they get very few responses. It would seem lightweight, light on their feet, (usually in French) subjects are more popular, I don't know why that would be but it can be annoying, so don't expect many answers to your query. |

Hello FYP welcome to the forum. As you may know there are lists for every tour on this page here: http://www.vivaroxymusic.com/tours.php but you will see a lot of them are incomplete. Occassionaly someone will e-mail me with the odd extra date as they still have their ticket stub or something else to remind them of the gig. It would be great to get an exhaustive list of every show but I don't think they kept good records and therefore the pre-internet tours will always have gaps but that shouldn't let us adding to what we have.

Many thanks for the warm welcome and nice replies. In the meantime I found out that Roxy were playing on September 12, 1982 in Berlin (Source: RockinBerlin - a website with many concert dates in and around Berlin). Hope to get more..... |

Hi FMP, they played in Hamburg on the 13th and 14th of September 1982: Attachment: IMG_0082-kl.jpg [ 207.48 KiB | Viewed 14859 times ] Here's a review of their concert on the 13th: Attachment: Roxy-1982.jpg [ 239.88 KiB | Viewed 14859 times ] Source: http://www.abendblatt.de/archiv/pdf.php?url=ha%2F1982%2Fpdf%2F19820914.pdf%2FASV_HAB_19820914_HA_012.pdf The tour poster and the review only mention the concert on the 13th, but I'm sure they've played on two evenings because I've seen both shows. Both dates are mentioned in an article from the Hamburger Abendblatt, a local newspaper that raffled tickets for both concerts: Attachment: Abendblatt-verlosung.jpg [ 118.13 KiB | Viewed 14859 times ] Source: http://www.abendblatt.de/archiv/pdf.php?url=ha%2F1982%2Fpdf%2F19820911.pdf%2FASV_HAB_19820911_WJ_006.pdf |

Hi FMP, You're most welcome. A pity I can't find the tickets anymore. But I think it's time to put the poster back to where it belongs - on the wall in my living room. Cheers, LD |

Welcome to VRM Formypleasure  I'm glad that someone here was able to answer your query. Given that the answer was not in the tour date archives of VRM (my first port of call) it was lucky that there was someone who had attended the gig and able to confirm your question.
