According to a feature on the official Bowie site, the Imperial College gig is considered the first proper Ziggy & the Spiders gig, “After a false start (Aylesbury Jan 29), three non-starters (Lanchester Polytechnic Arts Festival, Coventry, Feb 3 – Cleopatra’s in Derby, Feb 4 – Guild Hall, Southampton, Feb 7), a pub gig (the official start of the tour at the Toby Jug, Tolworth, Surrey, Feb 10) and a debatable (High Wycombe Town Hall, Feb 11), David Bowie’s UK Ziggy Stardust tour got underway properly with the first Ziggy and The Spiders show (though not yet billed as such) in London at The Great Hall in Imperial College, South Kensington on Feb 12, 1972, for a mere 50p admission”.
