I don't recall Eddie Murphy in the UK back then. It seems the dates you quote for him are at Madison Square Garden in New York - is that where we have woken up? I'd probably just want to get a flight straight back to Blighty!
Funnily enough, the only gig I think I attended that year isn't on your list: Oct 14, 1987: B.B. King, Royal Albert Hall - possibly because it's not in New York!

& why 1987? I'm now depressed at having been reminded that was the last time Everton won the League!

From that I'd probably attend both dates that Huey Lewis & the News are playing. I'd definitely be up for going to see Maiden, Rush & Bryan Adams that year as well.

Maiden Rush and motley crue
In 1987 they are the only three gigs I probably would have wanted to goto.

With my 1987 head on, not that many.
U2 (who I saw in 1987 at Murrayfield anyway) Bowie
Maybe Rush, although we'd pretty much parted company by 1987.
With my 2024 head on, a couple more.
The Cure Depeche Mode
