He definately played Fort Regent (holds 2000 people) in Jersey and would have possibly played Beau Sejour Centre in Guernsey (altough that only holds 400 seated people).

I`m trying to get more info but nothing is readily available, but I do remember him playing Jersey, that is a certainty.
After much searching, I found this post on http://www.mlukfc.com/forums/archive...hp/t-1782.html
regarding Bat Out of Hell`s 10th Anniversary:

The "big gun" was part of the wonderful stage set for Meat's 1984/5 Bad Attitude Tour. There was also a huge motorcycle which had Andy Wells drumkit on the saddle and Brian Chatten's keyboard riding pillion.

The gun was used in the pyrotechnics display. There's a great picture of Meat holding the gun on the back cover of the "To Hell & Back" biography.

When Meat played the Beau Sejour Leisure Centre in Guernsey and Fort Regent in Jersey in June, 1985 the motorcyle wasn't included but Meat did have the gun. Maybe the motorcycle was only used at the bigger venues.
