St Denis Theatre, Montreal, Canada |

|
Support acts were The B Girls and The
Undertones, with DJ Scratchy playing new UK releases between sets. This was
the same day that the Montreal Star newspaper ceased publication. The drum
kit stand was adorned with the front page of that day's New York Post, with
the large, garish headline "Docs Reattach Woman's Arm". The Clash
Opened with Safe European Home, followed by I'm So Bored With the USA. They
didn't play Tommy Gun. Audience members were encouraged to come on stage
during the last song, White Riot, [I among them], with onstage security at
the back, guarding the amps and drum kit. The Theatre St Denis had seating
capacity of about 2,200 at the time, though few, especially in the front,
spent much time seated. |

this is often dated as the 6th and it may
have been, but in order to fit the sequence of events in Greens book, A Riot
of Our Own it would have to be before that, maybe the 4th. |
