The only band I have seen at Ossy Theatre (I won't call it the town hall and upset Gayle

) is Rick Wakeman's Band which I think included his son

He was into everything like Sid Visc0us!

I've just seen in the Observer that your brother is the Tesco blackmailer.

I'm really sorry to hear that, and hopes he eventually manages to get his life back on track.

Yes, it's a shame he did that. He should have stuck to music. Did you ever see Motorhead at Accy Town Hall in 1976 and Buzzcocks at Mecca in Blackburn in 1977 - my brother was the person behind promoting those gigs as he worked for the Students Union and put those bands on!

Sadly I was too young to see the Buzzcocks then, as I was only twelve in '77.

I do remember seeing your brother out and about, but it was a few years later.

So Garinda you saw us in 78 aged 13?

Here is a snap shot of Nigel Talbot and myself in the dressing room at the Ozzy Townhall Gig!

I doubt I'd be able to be much use, as I was only eleven in '76.

Now if you were writing a book on post punk freaks, I'd be able to supply lots of information about the scene up here in the eighties.

Seriously, I'm sure Kestrelx would have much more information regarding the bands who formed the punk circuit in this part of the world.

Good luck.

The face in the picture (circled) is Mark Buroughs anyone remember Mark - he died of a drugs overdose in early 1980's!

I remember Mark used to go to school with him: gosh is it that long since he died: RIP Mark:

I was really too young to be a real punk. By the time I was fifteen I'd moved onto my next guise.

I'm sure someone like Kestrelx would be much more useful to know, as he was older, and much more on the local scene than I ever was.

A private school boy, with a couple of safety pins on his plastic mac, was never going to be seen as a real Anarchist.
