Up the Junction is one of the greatest songs ever written.
The solo Tilbrook show I saw was definitely memorable. He did one of his walkabouts, playing IIRC "Pulling Mussells", taking most of the people out of the front of the bar, around the block and into an alley where there was a police car parked. He then lies down on the police car, still playing, and the police officer turns on all the cruiser lights.

Great show.
