Re: Which was best, Golden Palms, Cavendish, Cats Whiskers or any such club!

Hi everyone, just reading your posts with interest. I sang with Adastra at the Golden Palms from 78 to 79. Anyone remember us?

I remember flyers for you in the music/art block at the Grammar school in 74ish . My mates Phil and Ian sang your praises from time to time. (No pun intended)

New Years Eve, 1972, Cats Whiskers with our mob from the Broadway. Had a few but couldn't get in the mood until my mate Mick Rotherham gave me a glass and told me to chug it, quadruple vodka straight down that did the trick. 5 minutes later Sweets Blockbuster and watch out dance floor!!! HAPPY NEW YEAR

I worked the door in Tiffany's for a while with an italian guy called ceasre ,then Iwent on to work the door on te golden palms from 72 to 74 ,,I think the manager was called Allan Bell or Ball, time plays tricks with your memory doesn't it, went the cav many times, still miss the palms though.
