David Bowie and the Buzz performed in Lowestoft, Suffolk, on Saturday 25 June 1966.
Although the venue is not known for certain, it was mostly likely the Royal Hotel, a popular venue for groups in the mid-Sixties.
The hotel was demolished in 1973, and the site is now the East Point Pavilion.

A great bit of historical trivia, should you wish to add it. Told to me by Mark Aaron, the son of Brian Seaman, mentioned in the local news article.

Thanks Matthew. If you or anyone knows the date of the 1964 gig please let me know and I’ll add it. I have the 1966 one in Lowestoft, but not the earlier one.
