Kevin Carlyon….Sent a copy of that out to Radio Caroline and it got airplay

Michael Mepham….Where’s me royalties ….

Kevin Carlyon….Went down with the ship!

Michael Mepham….(thinks) might do this one again. Anyone interested?

Paul Haze Harrison… Tommy Vance played Flying on the Friday Rock Show 4th February 1983

Nigel Ford… I used to play tracks on my Heavy Rock Show ( 1998-2014) on Hastings Rock Radio and have now put 4 in the library there and they come up occasionally when there’s no jocks playing their shows. I leant Mick my recording of Radio 1’s Friday Rock Show that broadcast tracks as he’d missed it. Still the most exciting band to come out of Hastings in my view. Yes Mick I know some want a cd of it. Best regards, Hastings Rock Heavy Nige…. (HRH!)

Andy – bassists, Gary Broughton – guitar, Mick Mepham – guitar, Steve Farris – Drums.

Michael Mepham…may well have been on the pier. The album line-up was different with Momo Sex on guitar and P P on drums. Momo went on to play with Becky Bondage in Ligotage. I do believe he’s been seen recently..

Mick Mepham…..Does anyone remember this? This from 1983 and rather well reproduced by Mo Blackford and friends. Sounds better now than it did then…. enjoy.

Clifford Rose…..I  used to have it on tape and it’s very good too.

Anna Kaye… Andy Animal was a dear friend of mine in the early 80’s – so great to have this online as a link to that time! If Andy reads this Anna-Lisa remembers hanging out with you with fondness. Hope you’re well xx

Mick Mepham… just read your message of 4 years ago duhhhhh. I’m sorry but I don’t know anything about Andy from Savage Hearts, I saw him at one of the beach parties a few years back but haven’t seen/heard anything else of him now for a long time. He was a lovely guy and I can only hope he’s ok. Fingers crossed!! Cheers again, Mick

Andy Qunta… Die Laughing – great band!

Michael Mepham… Andy, I love you and I want your children …..

Tim Moose Bruce… Theres your childminding sorted Andy…

Dave Nattress… You know what chaps, one of the very nicest things about this website is that in remembering all the local bands, gigs, musicians, DJ’s, all of us trying our best, everyone is kind, supportive, says nice things and speaks so well of everyone else. This post of Die Laughing is a great example!! Rock on!!

Wendy Weaver… One of the band worked in the Tax Office, cant remember his name. I think they were waiting to go to university. They seemed to practice an awful lot They got a gig playing on the pier I think to replace someone who had cancelled. it would have been about 1980 or so.

Mick Mepham… (photo 1) Hurrah! Note: The girl’s eyes front left!!!  (photo 4)  Takes me back to when Rumours was a really good gig. Packed out, hot, dark, sweaty and that was just Steve’s underwear …..This is how we use to get into the dressing room, hence the expression “the place was a dive”…… — With Steve Farris, Andy Animal, Momo Sex, Mick Mepham…. ”Not at all staged …..”

Vicky Jones… I used to work at Rumours and have just dug out a poster we cobbled together of the band, with me behind the bar! my ex-hubby Nick Jones was arranging the bands for Rumours at the time..

Jamie Farris… This is very cool to see

Savage Hearts with Mick Mepham – early 80’s?

Michael Mepham….Weird! I’m not sure where they were taken but I think the Yellowish one may have been upstairs at Rumours.Or downstairs. Don’t remember where the red one was . The 2 chaps on the left wore absolutely splendid jackets with the SH logo.

Vicky Jones… Heheh fancy finding this…. I’m the girl at the back (of the lower green one) with my chin resting on my hand. Yes it was taken at Rumours and I am looking at a copy I had stashed away as I type, my ex hubby Nick Jones used to arrange all the bands there
