The Early Gigs

Here is my attempt to chronicle all Helios Creed shows.  For shows in the present millennium, see the main gig page.  I have started with some notes I made when looking at Toxic Tommy's collection of fliers, and then tried to recount my own experiences.  I invite others to contribute!
