Croeso i NEWPORT ROCK COLLECTING
Mae Newport Rock Collecting yn brosiect casglu cyfoes a phrosiect hanes cymdeithasol a gafodd ei greu gan Winding Snake Productions, gyda chefnogaeth Amgueddfa ac Oriel Gelf Casnewydd. Mae’n cael ei ariannu gan Gronfa Dreftadaeth y Loteri Genedlaethol a’r Campws Cyntaf ym Mhrifysgol y De.
Trwy 2018 a 2020, byddwn ni’n casglu straeon a gwrthrychau o gigs Casnewydd yn y cyfnod 1970-2010 ar gyfer archif awdio ac arddangosfa newydd a fydd yn dathlu bandiau, gigs a roc yng Nghasnewydd.

Dyma'r disgrifiad Cymraeg
ONE OF MY EARLIEST BIG GIGS WOULD BE FOo FIGHTERS. 22 NOVEMBER, 1997 AT NEWPORT CENTRE. WELL, APART FROM BEING SOAKING AND CROWDSURFING FOR THE FIRST TIME I REMEMBER THAT DAVE GROHL AND TAYLOR HAWKINS BOTH HAD DRUM KITS ON STAGE THE SAME TIME. SO, THEY HAD THIS MASSIVE DRUM OFF, AND IT WAS JUST SO LOUD. IT WAS IMMENSE.
BUT I JUST REMEMBER IT BEING A REALLY GREAT GIG. I WAS SURPRISED SUCH A MASSIVE BAND WOULD COME TO NEWPORT.
