White Zombie, 13th May 1996 – Civic Hall, Wolverhampton

Sadly I could not procure tickets to see the Smashing Pumpkins during their tour of Easter 1996 (particularly as they subsequently disbanded), so I decided to catch White Zombie. The decision was proved a correct one as they have also since split, and they were fantastic on the night. Despite the sound not being particularly crisp, Rob Zombie put on a brilliant stage show with all the extras, and they even threw in a cover of Black Sabbath’s “Children of the Grave” for good measure. 


Highlights include "Super Charger Heaven" (DEVIL MAN!) and "ThunderKiss 65". Oh and I bought a WZ T-Shirt that I still have to this day - pretty good quality unlike some of the illegal cheap tat they used to flog outside the place.
