GEOFF NUGENT ROCKS YORK

May saw us playing at Lesley’s birthday party; among the guests were our good mate and Undertaker Geoff Nugent. Well, we couldn’t pass up the opportunity to have a damn good rockin’ session, could we? So Geoff joined us for half a dozen numbers, and a marvellous time was had by all. The first photo here is of interest because it’s probably the first time Geoff has been photographed singing into a Reslo ribbon mic since the early sixties!

Photos are by our favourite official photographer and regular contributor to our Gallery pages, Geoff’s lovely lady Mave Atherton.

We love you Mave!

EAST LEEDS LIONS ROARING SUCCESS

This year was the 11th East Leeds Lions Motor Cycle Club Easter Rally, and we were delighted to be asked to attend on The Saturday night. ELL is a group of people who get together to share their love of biking, and along the way they raise money -at rallies such as the Easter one -for the Yorkshire Air Ambulance. The rally consists of thousands of people getting together for the weekend, watching live music, getting drunk, and wading up to their knees in mud!

As we can testify, the atmosphere is fantastic and, although all the other bands were Heavy Rock (the bikers’ favourites), leaving us to feel like fish out of water, we went down a storm.

A lot of our mates from Rock of the North and The Lion at Castleford were there, and they all made us feel very welcome. The stewards were very helpful in towing us off

the field after we became seriously bogged down (returning an extremely muddy borrowed van back to it’s owner - Rock and Roll, eh!)

Thanks to Graham for inviting us, and - please can we come back again sometime?

There are some photos of us on the pretty impressive stage in our Gallery pages here
