Jimi Hendrix South Shields Gig Ticket 1967

Original, large & rare Jimi Hendrix card concert ticket (3"x 5") for the New Cellar Club, South Shields, 1st Feb 1967.

Apparently Jimi & the band arrived late. They were to perform on a revolving stage but while tuning up backstage Jimi blew his amp & took Noel's. Noel had to scrounge an inferior amp from a support band. Nonetheless the band were well received & at the end, as the stage began to revolve, the more enthusiastic members of the audience tried to grab the band resulting in them nearly being crushed against the side wall! (detailed in "Jimi Hendrix: Concert Files" by Tony Brown).

Provenance: This item & other similar tickets from this venue already listed, came from the club DJ.

The ticket has been folded & is numbered to the reverse "229". Also to the reverse of the ticket is a 1968 receipt from Spooky Tooth!

NB. A supplementary P&P charge will be required for overseas buyers.
