Talk:Rock Goes to College

Start of Article
I went to a number of RGTC concerts and also enjoyed several of the broadcasts (mainly on stereo radio as I was at University at the time and couldn't afford or get access to a TV set). Some of this article is from my own faded brain cells and others from well documented sources. Please add anything you can. The BBC themselves don't seem to have very much info on it themselves. I know that I went to the AC/DC concert, a Lindesfarne concert and a Style Council concert in the series. Any more info would help to fill this out more.

This is my first page so I expect I haven't followed all the correct headings. ;=) Candy 14:18, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

VH1 Classics recently showed the Tom Petty Concert from March 24 1980.(It aired on June 3 2007) It was very good, and prompted me to start hunting for a DVD copy of it. Having a very hard time finding it. VH1 is probably showing others from this series, but I've only seen this one. FYI  68.32.24.61 03:04, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

Structure change
Split up the article for easier editing. It may eventually be better to split the listing off to its own article and try and expand the main article.

Removed the following parts to place here - do not seem that relevant in the main article.


 * Undated


 * Thin Lizzy
 * Steel Pulse
 * XTC


 * Rumoured


 * Gary Moore
 * Colosseum II

Still trying to find more references. However, RGTC has almost faded into obscurity in all respects. 8(

 * Part of the date confusion is that when I originally created the article there was a mix-up over the performance date and the broadcast date. I'll go back nd recheck when I have time. --Candy (talk) 14:49, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
