Engerica biography of rory
For many Exeter alumni, the bands they saw in the Great Hall, The Pit or the Lemmy provide some of the greatest university memories. Over the years we have been lucky enough to hosts bands such as The Who, Pink Floyd, U2, Radiohead and Bob Marley.
While people reminisce about the gigs they attended and bands they saw, we've never had a concert list before. Now, thanks to alumni Alan Cottee (Geography, ) and Paul O'Carroll (English, History and Sociology, ), we are starting to build one. Thanks to their memories and diaries from the late seventies and early eighties we have begun a list.
If you have anything to add or comments to make, then please contact us on alumni@ and we will update the list. We'd also love to add any of your concert memories to this page.
Here's a little from Alan about why he started the list.

Dietrich's death was announced Friday by the John A. Freyvogel Funeral Home. It said he died Thursday but did not disclose the cause.
A Pittsburgh native, Dietrich was born in , and rose to chairman of Dietrich Industries Inc., turning the small family business into the nation's largest manufacturer of light metal construction framing.
A former U.S. Marine, Dietrich had been an active supporter of business and the arts in western Pennsylvania, serving on the boards of the Allegheny Conference on Community Development, Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre, Pittsburgh Symphony Society and the University of Pittsburgh.

Bill Dietrich & Carnegie Mellon University
He added, "This remarkable gift will give us the resources to enhance and extend those collaborations, expand the university's impact in the world and enrich the education of our students."
Dietrich's gift, among the 10 largest in the United States, is believed to be the 14th largest gift to higher education worldwide.
"Andrew Carnegie once said, 'As I grow older, I pay less attention to what men say. I just watch what they do.' Today, we are seeing the result of what one man can do," said Ray Lane, chairman of CMU's Board of Trustees and general partner of Kleiner, Perkins, Caufield and Byers.
He added, "It is remarkable how much Carnegie Mellon has achieved with its limited resources, regularly producing disproportionate impacts in every field in which it operates. Imagine how much more it will achieve with these new resources!
"As a Pittsburgher myself, I am especially pleased that Bill, an accomplished native son of Pittsburgh, will be forever linked to Carnegie Mellon in this very meaningful way," Lane said.
The gift comes at a time when CMU is in the public phase of its $1 billion fundraising campaign, titled Inspire Inn
