The last of my student sightings of the band in concert was at Sheffield SU Phoenix Hall, - the 14 Explicit Moments tour which you also list as 23/04/1982. All the Pre publicity for the forthcoming 'Pornography' Album and posters too. They were doing a limited twelve inch vinyl EP that I think was only available on tour, but student funds didn't reach to that.
A very different gig, strangely played at a much faster tempo than the resulting Pornography album, and by that stage, the crowd was much deeper and the room filled to capacity.
