Pete Brazier… Our Band “IRON DUKE” used to practice there and did a couple of Gigs there too! (The first one was my first ever proper gig!) I was so nervous my leg started to shake so I put extra weight onto that leg which stoped the shake but yes you probably guessed it! The other leg started to shake! I was leaning from side to side trying to get my legs to stop shaking! And all I could think is “Is this how shaking stevens got his name?” Either people didn’t noticed or thought it was some sort of dance because I never got referd to as “Shaking Peter”
