Mick Mepham….Excellent!!! Paul was with me in Mars in ’86 and I think I played with Mark too but can’t remember when exactly, it might have been more like ’87 ish. I don’t believe I ever had the pleasure of playing with Chris….

Gary Kinch…..Top Bloke is Chris, haven’t seen him for a while

Chris Sambrook…The band were influenced by Rush around time of Moving Picture or beyond. Why i was wearing a Fireman’s helmet and blowing a “Duck call” is beyond me.

Mick Mepham…It’s a good look though Chris …….

Stevie Simpson… Saw Chris for the first time in 30 something years last night over at The Carlisle in Hastings, hardly changed

Terry Hardwick… Those H H speakers they weighed a ton

Val Orringe… Well, well, well. Searched to find out how the very talented Paul T was doing and found this. A quantum reality time ago. Still have the tinnitus as proof! My memory is of the sell out at the Tivoli, Eastbourne.

Martin Richter… Dr marvin suggs

Onebloke1mandoline… An eternity it feels. I haven’t seen Paul in years either though I have been trying to track him down.

Karen Sweatman… I went one year and Gerry and the Pacemakers were headlining. Centre Page were support if my memory serves me correctly.

Kathy Harding… Thanks Pete, great memories for Les

Chris Baker… Remember Suspect playing around Hastings. Round Table youth club at the far end of Priory Road, near Mount Pleasant Hospital (I think!) “Town Council” a band I was in, were regulars there and used to practice downstairs. Mr. Day was in charge there for a while. Great bloke and very encouraging

Peter Houghton… Is that Ray Fenwick on Guitar?

Graham Burfield… Peter, yes it’s Ray

Pete Prescott… Great memories !

Chris Howard… Loved those days

Stuart Moir… This was a time when the money was second to the enjoyment of performing with fantastic musicians/singers and dancers .
