Neil Cartwright… Dave Bell, nice guitarist. Liked their version of ‘Stop Dragging my Heart Around’.
Leigh Mitchell… Remember Steve Portch from Saturdays in the mid-70s, he was the manager when I worked there
Terry Scaife… Leigh, I love that girl’s outfit
Leigh Mitchell… Terry, very 80s! xx
Barry French… Saw them play a very impressive gig in Alexandra Park (I think it must have been a carnival night)
all supplied by Steve Portch.
Alan Esdaile… Wendy Weaver, the venue that you were trying to remember in Warrior Square was called Sarah’s Night Club. See above.
Wendy Weaver… That’s the one. Thanks Alan. Lovely friendly little place. I met some really nice people in there. Some intolerant people objected to some of the clientele and threatened to fire bomb the club on a Saturday night. Lots of beefy security volunteers but it didn’t open again, too greater risk. Must have been 1981.
Kev Towner… Wish I’d kept my old Poison Pens now.
Peter Fairless… Poison Pen, I might have written that!
supplied by Roger Carey A21 – 1982 featuring Denise Hellier, David Bell, David Roberts, Vince Evans, Steve Portch.
