Review from Sounds (October 1984)

Apparently, there was also an article about Pandora's in the November issue of German magazine Spex. A websearch turned up mentionings of the Gun Club, Lyres, Nomads, Dream Syndicate, Matador, Psychic TV, Jah Wobble/Insane Fame, Opposition, March Violets and Pete Shelley. Unfortunately, I do not have a copy of the magazine or scans thereof. If you do, please drop me an email.

Garage box

The first night of Pandora's 1984 had a room reserved for garage rock.

Other info
Bij de 2e editie, ter gelegenheid van de garagebox, verscheen er bij de Oor (?) een bijlage over garage muziek toen en nu, met een uitputtende opsomming en beschrijving van bandjes. Deze bijlage werd al gauw 'de garagebijbel' genoemd, en was de bron van vele ontdekkingen qua sixties garagerock. (Gerdou, http://www.wiels.nl/blog/comments.php?y=07&m=10&entry=entry071025-001000)
