WHAT IS ACCRINGTON FAMOUS FOR? Refusing to pay "the" Gary Barlow

A member of the site told me about Gary Barlow once having appeared in one of our working mens clubs. I didnt believe him of course, but ... here is the proof.

Why Gary Barlow was embarrassed in Accrington (From Blackburn Citizen)

Gary Barlow has revealed he suffered a lengthy bout of depression following Take That's split.
In an interview with Observer Magazine, the singer-songwriter said: "... he became so full of self-loathing that he began to over-eat, piling on five stone."

Barlow said it was only when Take That reformed in 2006 that he felt "valid again".

Personally I'm a big "Robbie" fan -great voice and what a performer!

Karisma went on to hit the big time as Creme Brulee, after he left.



I bet Barlow's as sick as Pete Best, as Creme Brulee continue to be the numero uno act in northern clubland.

Don't know about that Rindi, think he's made a shilling or two since then

Oh Garinda, Creme Brulee are the very best, I've seen them live, but Gary Barlow surely comes a close second?

Not in the same league, but the boy ain't done too bad for himself.

Bet he's still gutted though.

I mean...Creme Brulee!

They don't come much bigger.
