MARILLION – Live @ Roskilde Festival 1983

For many years, Marillion fans had to make do with the ‘Recital of The Script’ and ‘Grendel/Web’ VHS tapes for their fix of early Marillion live footage.  Thanks to the internet, further footage promoting ‘Script For A Jester’s Tear’ later surfaced, including a brief clip from The Marquee, but this footage from the Danish Roskilde Festival might just be the most exciting yet.

It captures Camel drummer Andy Ward’s brief time occupying the drum stool, making this a vital historical document.  Ward automatically gives the performance(s) a little more energy than Mick Pointer was able (though still not quite enough if Steve Rothery’s expressions are anything to go by on occasion), but anything lacking musically is more than made up for by a ridiculously boisterous audience being tackled by Fish in a fearless mood.

The full set on the day included ‘He Knows, You Know’, ‘Garden Party’, ‘Script For A Jester’s Tear’, ‘Charting The Single’, ‘Assassing’ (an early pre-‘Fugazi’ performance), ‘Market Square Heroes’, ‘Forgotten Sons’ and ‘Margaret’.

Unfortunately, only the Danish TV broadcast of the last two songs is in circulation. Whether the rest of the set was even filmed is up for debate, but these twenty minutes could well be the best footage of the earliest Marillion you’ll ever see…

  • When the autumn-tour was planned, it was not intended that Marillion should play two gigs in Manchester, but massive ticket demand in the autumn had added one more gig at the Apollo Theatre to their schedule. When the tour was rearranged, the extra date was of course kept, as the show on that night had sold out as well.

Since it was a warm-up show, I could have sworn Marillion played the song Script For A Jester’s Tear twice during the show, as if they were practicing it." (Duke A. Potter)

  • The Thieving Magpie (La Gazza Ladra) was omitted for this show, Fish did a spoken intro instead: "This… er… we used to say in the old days, this gig is in actual fact very reminiscent of a concert we did in a place called Tonypandy in South Wales, right? And… er… what was said there could actually be said tonight cos if you want you can sit on the floor whatever you know? Take it easy, no point in standing up all the way through the gig you know? Just relax, get into it, you know? You fuckers in the seats would you ever bring the seats forward? Brilliant! This… er… we shall open with the set with a very broncail Ian Mosley! IAN TAKE IT AWAY!" (Transcription by Keith Wickenden)
  • "This was the first time Marillion had played this sequence of old rock and rollers as a jam in concert!" (Terry Blake)
  • "No, it wasn’t 🙂 The first time was at De Montfort Hall, Leicester – 29th January" (The Author)

  • Ticket – Thanks to Dwight Hodge
  • Photos – Thanks to Jason Leizer

"I was at that show, and remember particularly, the band was introduced by Shirley McQueen from Q107. Then a stagehand ran out, and unscrewed the mic, reached up as high as he could, then screwed it back in. Not sure if I was more surprised by how short Shirley McQueen was, or how tall Fish was – it was my first Marillion show." (Neil McGivney @ Facebook – 02.12.2020)

  • "I don’t remember if it was after Kayleigh or if it was after Lavender that this happened, but there were a LOT of people in the audience that didn’t seem to care for Marillion. These idiots were tossing coins up at the stage, garbage etc. Well there were about 30-40 of us up front who were very much Marillion fans and were obviously enjoying the show, so Fish walks to the edge of the stage right in front of us, looks out at the crowd and says something to the effect of …for those of you not enjoying the show and throwing things up at the stage, these people up front have two words for you: FUCK OFF! I will never forget that moment. It was truly magical to see him so wanting to give a small group of us who were absolutely into the show the best performance possible and telling everybody else that if they didn’t like it, he didn’t really give a flying fuck." (MZ from Detroit)

" Shot with a little 100 Instamatic camera at San Diego’s California Theater, a tragically under-attended show that was almost cancelled for low ticket sales (more the blame of the crumbling soon-to-close theater that had stuffed local newspapers over ads so often that the only way to find out about this show was the San Diego Reader calendar)."

17.06.1986 – Stadthalle, Vienna

  • "I had become a Marillion fan with Misplaced Childhood but very soon loved all their stuff – music, lyrics, covers, the lot. It didn’t take long either to find out that no-one else around me felt the same way about the band and that, unlike Germany, Austria chose to largely ignore the success Marillion was having at the time. But that was fine by me – feeling like the only Marillion fans (my brother was the other one) was somehow special. And then a Marillion concert was announced at the biggest indoor venue on offer in Vienna, with a capacity of up to 18,000. I didn’t care much for that before the concert, I was just too excited because it seemed like a miracle that Marillion played Vienna at all.
  • It is difficult for me to tell how many people turned up, but the crowd seemed lost in the vast arena, and even Fish commented on this fact after Garden Party . And I can’t blame him. At this point in their career, they were used to playing the largest audiences outdoors and indoors, so I am sure this concert came as a shock. If it did, it shocked them into playing a wonderously dynamic set, with Fish singing bits in German and the crowd responding enthusiastically. The concert ended with Market Square Heroes including the wonderfully entertaining couple of cover versions of She Loves You and Let’s Twist Again . Recently stumbling across a recording of this show proved my recollections not exaggerated at all – it was a high-energy and fun concert and, probably needless to say, the best concert I have ever been to. It remained their only show in Austria." (Robert)

  • "The one [photo] with Fish looking to his left (see gallery below) was where he was berating a group of non Marillion fans fighting! My recollection of the fighting was it was nothing to do with the music, it was two groups of drunken mobs in the heat of the afternoon, Scousers and Wools (those from Liverpool, Scousers and those outsiders or Wools). I recall Fish screaming, “This is a rock concert, not a fucking battleground!” I think I captured Fish’s disdain in my photograph." (Kenton Lawton)
