Have just stumbled upon this very old thread and remember the Arcs and the Cavern. I remember watching the Warriors at the Arcs - Johnny going on to be Jon Anderson of Yes.
I noticed the reference to Brian Boyd and remembered him being one of the local heartthrobs. I googled his name out of curiosity and found a funeral notice for a Brisn H Boyd from Oswaldtwistle who would have been the right age.
