The following is a list of all the live shows played by Throbbing Gristle. During the first incarnation (1976-1981) nearly every concert started with a punch clock, ran 60 minutes and then the power was cut. Every one of these shows was recorded and most appeared on the cassette releases as well as various other recordings, with virtually every vintage TG live set available as part of TG24 or TG+.
