She even got an encore - which for 7:30 Saturday at Butlins pretty unheard of.Rigid Digithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16757290844359368792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5594577654019695483.post-65929188414432914872021-11-24T01:15:32.780+00:002021-11-24T01:15:32.780+00:00This was such a good interview.This was such a good interview.Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01606364728762888732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5594577654019695483.post-42302262369081426852021-11-20T11:59:25.192+00:002021-11-20T11:59:25.192+00:00very interesting episode thank you great to hear s...very interesting episode thank you great to hear some background stuff on the group i saw three of the shows and the brighton one was easily my favourite despite it being in the afternoon they are just so friendly and funny and just absolutely love the music and the look hope they come back soon<br />davidAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15072202020655522971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5594577654019695483.post-64377074060798079422021-08-05T22:57:49.755+01:002021-08-05T22:57:49.755+01:00An excellent afternoon, a good sized crowd, and a ...An excellent afternoon, a good sized crowd, and a lively Q/A, thanks to everyone that contributed from setting up, to attending, and thank you Steve Worrall for capturing it all.Tony Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13019053982352551155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5594577654019695483.post-75964318884886343232021-03-17T20:11:53.265+00:002021-03-17T20:11:53.265+00:00Best band ever.

It was approximately where the Academy of Contemporary Music now lies in Bridge Street. For your next visit (!), you might want to take in the former St Mary’s Tutorial College (Mary Hobbs) where Hugh taught for a while (inspiration for ‘School Mam’?). I think this may have been south of Guildford town centre at 87/89 in Portsmouth Road. I’m not certain of this, though. I live in Guildford if you should need any further photos for subsequent blog posts.

The fans were then encouraged to “move them”. So we did. I remember jumping on the folding seats one by one and breaking the seat part off. Then the rows of seats were moved and we all moved up the frontKid Streethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13263399443454243195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5594577654019695483.post-8777327661736507402020-02-12T15:08:40.407+00:002020-02-12T15:08:40.407+00:00It’s only Punk’n Roll !!It’s only Punk’n Roll !!pedrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17629798681349410152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5594577654019695483.post-35569074749857630242019-12-16T15:30:47.621+00:002019-12-16T15:30:47.621+00:00SO agree with everything you've said.
