Remember Miriam Karlin in The Rag Trade…
Pauline Richards… Yes. Blowing a whistle shouting…..everybody out!!
Andre Martin… This Chris Gentry bloke get about – when I think of all the events that we were involved in at some point, and now the organisations just have gone. The town is that much poorer and the young people missing out on so much. Just look at the admission price 2/- wow.
Mick O’Dowd… Hurst Court has gone as well Andre/Chris/Marshall etc.etc.etc

L to R: Ray Harper, Colin Pierce, Dave Shaw, Robin Sargent, Colin Fox and Rod Pittam sitting below.
Robert Searle….Nice one Colin
Andre Martin….Found this from my Hastings Pier Files
Andre Palfrey-martin collection
Peter Millington…..I make the date as being 7th February 1970
Rob Sargent… I remember the photo session, on the beach just below the Wish Tower. Hope you’re all still rocking and enjoying it as much as I am.
Lynne Norris… I found this site accidentally and it triggered many memories of my teenage years and some really good music. I remember The Spooks and 4-Bidden well when they played upstairs at Club Continental. As a 16-year old, I absolutely adored Dave Shaw and I was beside myself when we moved to Burrow Down and Dave Shaw and his family lived just over the road from us at Den Hill. Dave had this big old tank of a car and he would give me a lift sometimes. I am pleased that he kept on rocking and am I sad to hear that he has passed away.
Terry Corder… I was there. One of my favourite bands of the time, Wishful Thinking that is. Even bought their album.
Robert Searle… I saw Wishful Thinking at the De La Warr and thought they were really good group.
Mick O’Dowd… Echo above!

Colin Fox… I don`t know if this has been posted before, but I played with St Johns Wood in the 60`s
Mick O’Dowd… Very nice find Colin. Anymore? Does anybody have any info/pics of Precisely This. Must say they are new to me.
Lynn Graham… Yay the Springbeats. Woohoo.
Martin Richter… advert… this is more like it!!
Andre Palfrey-martin collection
Mick O’Dowd… excellent concert, highly underrated.
Alan Esdaile… Managed Delroy in the 70’s, always puts on a great show and a really nice guy. Still going strong as part of Desmond Dekker’s Aces tribute.
Andre Martin… Remember the night well, unfortunatly not a very big crowd, so the ballroom was a little chilly even with the Gas fires working. Good programme and headliners were excellent.
Pete Fairless… What did Chris Gentry show, we wonder?
Andre Martin… Now that would be telling.
Alan Esdaile… style, flair, presentation skills and great music.
