Wendy Weaver… I went to Courtneys in the early 80s and Joan Collins in The Stud was projected against the wall behind the stage. A strange experience
Shaun Pont… I remember seeing this at the cinema. A film that was not going to trouble the Oscars’ committee.
Terry Pack… I would have been a member of The Hollywood Killers in Feb 76, but have no recollection of this gig (as usual; maybe I had a double for 20 years?).
Ralph Town… Terry,was Ashley Pepper in the band in Feb 76?? Coz if he was,I would have been his “roadie” at that time and I cant remember that gig either smile emoticon
Terry Pack… Yep, Ralph, Ashley Pepper was in the band then. Maybe we ALL had doppelgängers!
Alan Esdaile… Found another cutting (see above) This might be the reason you don’t remember this gig. Possibly Hollywood Killers did not support in the end and replaced by Krazy Kat?
Dave Nattress… I don’t remember this gig or gigs but saw Krazy Kat supporting the wonderful Be Bop Deluxe at Eastbourne Congress in 1976 and they were really good. I’ve got 2 vinyl albums of Krazy Kat which likewise are good. Snafu were gigging a lot in this period and I have a CD of theirs – a sort of best of I think. Need to check out personnel and tracks when I get a bit of time later today.
Jim Penfold… My sister promoted this gig (Rollerball Productions) and we were billed to support (Hollywood Killers) but for some reason we didn’t!
Gerry Fortsch… I was there.
Nastassja Kaschevsky… Bought my drumkit from there, and was still using it up to 2012!
Roy Penfold… I used to spend (far too) many hours in there dreaming – sadly my aspirations were not equalled by my income….sigh!
Sam Rosewell… I used to buy sheet music there
Joe Knight… Get back on it 
😆you were great
Colin Fox… Bought my Yamaha SG2000 their when Eddie Sargent worked there.
Rick Bonner… Wow……great memory
Steve Thorpe…. Drums!
Ann Hohenkerk… Loved working there! 
I ran the Yamaha Music school in the evenings and worked in the shop during the day. Happy memories!
Chris Giles… I got my guitar from there …in 1973 still got it too..
Gez Donnelly… I got my first decent guitar from there. Used to rehearse upstairs.
Mike Vawdrey… The only years which work in terms of when October 11 fell on a Friday would be 1985 and 1991. However you made an earlier posting on the 1985 event which definitely rules that out. Tenor sax man Eddie Miller died in April, 1991 which makes it most improbable that he would be billed as a participant 6 months later unless this was a very early piece of pre-publicity ? Food for thought.
Alan Esdaile… Thanks Mike, appreciated. If we went the other way could be 1974?
Who remembers Percy Press on Hastings Pier?
Julie Morris… Used to see him in the Warrior Square shows – he was great fun!
Alan Esdaile… I’m pretty sure it was Percy Press doing the kids entertainment by the bandstand on the front of the pier when I was about 5 years old. Got encouraged, well pushed on the stage and handed one of those long thin balloons to blow up. He was blowing up balloon after balloon but as you guessed it was impossible for me to do it. Everyone was in hysterics watching me go red in the face and I ended up running off stage in tears!
Julie Morris… Alan, I think he used to have a game of could eat the most dry cream crackers (no water). I don’t think anyone ate more than three!
Pete Fairless… That’s the way to do it, apparently!
David Wilde… Do you know the date of this picture at all?
Alan Esdaile… 1979
Nigel Pattison… Really good times I was working in the kitchen from 76-78 ,down in the disco when all the public got out at 2 am carried on till nearly time to start cooking the guests breakfast some nights .
Tracy Birrell… I was a receptionist at The Queens in the 70’s.
Matt Thomas… Peter Powell was there in 85 as well, Ashley hung about at the end to catch him and give him a cassette if his music. He did get a mention on his Radio 1 show next day though
Martin Richter… Matt, Lol – i have a similar story about a cassette tape
Jane Hartley… Peter did a show in Bonita’s around 75, I think.
Judy Atkinson… Jane, yes, I was there. I remember some game where I plucked hairs from his legs! I think it was called Queen of Clubs by then, not Bonitas
Sue Strong… Was also down the Crypt
Malcolm Sharp… Steve Wright often there, would jump on the speakers
Judy Atkinson… I saw DLT on the pier – took part in a game where I was blindfolded & fed cold rice pudding, won a lot of LPs (which I still have, including one by Gentle Giant)
Shaun Pont… Wasn’t she a regular at Kings Country Club? And, her brother was in Imagination?
