Karen Sweatman… I Like Danny’s Hair were fantastic. I can remember their classic ‘Fatso Fatso, Let’s Break For Lunch’
Martin Richter… were they the Eastbourne band Karen?
Kev Towner… Anyone remember Rockbitch?
Karen Sweatman … I had forgotten just how bonkers they were! Rick, the singer used to have a trick of smashing a beer glass on his forehead. It went horribly wrong one night and he did a whole set with blood pouring down his face. Also remember the audience playing a game of football during one of their gigs. Do you remember Rik Goodman?
Kev Towner… I used to work on Turn It Up Redstar. I’ve still got a newspaper cutting from one of the broadsheets when they did a big piece on the show. I think there’s me, Duncan and some others in it – including some pics of a studio interview with (I think) The Long Tall Texans.
Martin Richter… I`m a long tall Texan – I drive a big white car ! Lovely geezers – their hastings experiences didn`t do them credit.
Paul Dengate… Re The Battle Of The Bands (8th March), that was probably the year that Better Days won it.
John Bowles… Just stumbled across this poster from March 1989. I played guitar in local Hastings band, Tigershow (Wednesday 22nd). We appeared at The Crypt a few times in the late 80s. Always an enjoyable gig at this cool venue. Thanks for the memories. I think I have a short video somewhere from this show if anybody is interested.
Grant Young… I played on the Bewildered gig back in 89!
