Hi lowart, times past this thread by, shame, but I worked at the Town Hall and saw those two concerts, he came back later and did his Ziggy thing there twice I think, although my memories are clouded a little:)
 
Yes I saw him in early 1970s at the Town Hall. He was the most entertaining performer I'd ever seen. Saw him a few times, his shows were fantastic, he never disappointed. Such a sad loss to music. Viv.
