The table embedded below the list of band members provides a list of every gig played by RIO and Passion Spent, from the first RIO gig at the Endyke Hotel on 6 March 1983, to the final Passion Spent gig (a private party to celebrate the 50th birthday of Steve Snaith) at the Hull Rugby Union Football Club, Wadsworth Avenue, Hull, on 11 November 2006. If you think we’ve missed any, please get in touch using our Contact Us page.

For further information, we have produced the following downloadable, colour-coded Gig List.

The following band member appearances information is based on the assumption that the date we have for the first gigs of each band member is correct. We believe the only potential areas for confusion or error are the first/last gigs of bass players, Ben, Steve, and Andy; and drummers, Gav and Mark.

  • Mick Douthwaite (drums): 36
  • Brian Wrigglesworth (bass): 59
  • Dave Rushby (guitars): 340
  • Ian Sunderland (keyboards): 340
