Hiya Jim, it was a good guitar sound there too,another good one was" The Grand"in Padiham,old traditional theatre, plaster cherubs decorating corners of the balcony& a big old stage,it had become one of Fred Skinners bingo halls[he had quite a few of them] we played in-between the bingo sessions,we also did a recording there on-to tape & then sent it off to a firm in Carnforth and it came back as a 45 record,I still have a copy probably in the loft hidden away so nobody can hear it!!
