  2. Ahh the Sandpiper,the good days...

    appar the singer ( Mark) from Some Chicken died a while ago,something to do with heart probs :mellow:

    I held a couple of my bday parties down there and had the Drains and Some Chicken play,that was fun times..

    i remember the floor used to be covered in spit near the stage and also remember a guy called Mark Marshall who i think played in a band and had this thing for eating glass( with blood pouring from his mouth) and cutting his arms and chest to ribbons with it,i wonder where he is now..

    i reckon if there was ever a fire no one wouldve got out alive lol

  3. I remember it really well. Downstairs used to play Dub and Punk (77/78) and had the singles down there. I remeber that the alphabetical dividers between singles has union jacks printed on them. I 'liberated' one of the 'Never Mind the Bollocks' posters from the stairwell. Wish I still had it, worth a fortune now. I hung around the court as the Bollocks case was heard, trying to see Johnny Rotten.

    yup I remember all that,and Mark that used to play what we asked from behind the counter,I always used to dread falling down those stairs god knows why lol

    it was a hang about downstairs then a wander to the local cafe( Hollies or the one across the road) then the Odeon pics,a total embarrassment when Hendrix and his crew rattled their way in halfway thru the film,my god now I feel oldddddddddd
