Dont recall ever going to a gig there, a quirky place, upstairs 'dance' floor was odd, wooden box seats around the perimeter in almost total darkness. The door policy was interesting, if you weren't dressed in black you didn't get in...?? However when looking at the people on the fire escape, a huge cross section! Obviously got fussy when nearing capacity. The Door's reference in the video is obviously complete hogwash. Was the Jimi gig down them steep steps?...

Last I heard people were dancing on tables, talking the courtyard area, this was over 10 years ago and another 26 in personal memory. Way before my.time, was the Jimi gig down the Steep stairs? Holding a pint was tricky being over six foot. After entering, can't recall a bar? I think this was rougly 1982. Toilets extreme left, one female, one male. Recall music being played but no dance.area, access came from the main buildings fire escape Which at the time was called the Garage. Anybody recall the acoustic sets? In between rooms, recall

Up until 20 year's ago, I was naive, Carl Perkins, what a player! I guess the commercial record buying public were denied true exposure...

Meant 1921.. Had the blank form since 2014, 1911 was informative, 1921 also requests more detail, Including employer. Mr Cameron, I Don't watch Heir Hunter's..

I have often wondered about school register's and work ledger's. Haven't been on 'find my Past' for a few year's but read in a mag, school registers are now covered, 1870..onward.. probably fee-paying. that I suspect would already well documented... Other ranks please..? Does anybody know if Nottingham is included? Looking forward to the 2021 census, personally ithink I have it sussed, But I'm sure the 'laughing' deceased up there will have at least one surprise!

My all time, favourite promo ..and a great song...

Great post Michael, If I remember correctly, St Stephens underwent renovation, in 1908. There's a lovely pic, roughly facing, have nailed the frontage, music teacher, fits census, What's going on behind?

and the most expensive cover to Manufacture, all hand done, regarding pic's, plus gold leaf, I have this..an only American release? I'm sure a read that Physical Graffiti was the most expensive to produce, obviously..much later.. The first CS&N was the one with the blotting paper cover, as you previously stated first Joni, is Textured.

Remember the occasional auction at Colwick on Sunday Morning's. The 'Stars' of the show were listed.on the front of the auction programme. Alway looked for the tenacious, unlucky second or third finisher. Log book, remained in our back pocket.. despite numerous requests from the auctioneer.

Hi Rich.. Relating to Nott's, I miss the, overly long production of the photo finish resulting in a hound that looks like a proboscis monkey and the groan that went up as the hare driver took his foot of the pedal, between the second & third bend! Happy days! Recall the name Dave Conway at Colwick, don't think he was the Racing Manager, was it a Father and Son team?

A good day to you, Apologies for the amount of posts. I find it amusing re-reading this input. Gives me an insight into my younger self. Was there a record shop on Cardale Rd? Before my time, but think my Gran my have mentioned it.

Can somebody please explain why I now appear to be to be talking to myself. How assumptive.. Please pull my posts,

I also saw Zeppelin at Knebworth, there was two shows, also Stones in '76, and Deep Purple in 1985.

I did my best, but gave up.. DJ, When was the last time you posted in a thread over 2 years old without being prompted?

This site, needs to exploit it's strengths eg.. unique, The name should say it all. If potential new member's didn't have to wade through 'social media waffle' which, in general, they are bombarded with elsewhere.. They may feel more of a SPECIAL connection, it's simple marketing..

Quite a few of the 'older' blues players Oz. The two that immediately come to mind are Albert King and Otis Rush. On a modern theme, the Amazing Eric Gales, still have tickets to see him, now over a year old!!

Less than one new contributer every 8 months?

How did you find the site? BK

Without even counting the sub-headings there are at least 55 topics specifically about Nottingham or some aspect of it. Paste hasn't worked, this is in reply to Brew, i joined 2 years ago, how many new members, made over ten posts in this time? I'd guess under 5, if you bin, drop one, keep one. I wasn't schooled in Nott's & have never worked there, I found Ian123 contribution's superb. I have been in forums, since the newsgroup days, mid nineties, I have never known people criticised for too much content, normally, they are thanked, for their hard work!

Gonna' read some wiki, Then I'll Dust My Room, Where do you find this stuff? Lonnie Johnston, Robert Johnson, Son House?

Jill, you say, musical ability tends to run in families, the best impression I get, you are talking genetics? Iv'e read many a autobiography, and exposure and opportunity appear to dismiss that theory.. Gaining an influence or teacher at an early age, when practice would be less of a chore appears crucial! Only instrument at my school was a recorder! Did have some piano lessons, payed for by Gran when about 7. Actually proved useful!

Made a reference to a nearby 'fever" Hospital twice...zero responce...oh well.

??..I can only assume you had a one on one with his Bob? was it in a helicopter? Thanks for the inspiration.. On a Dylan phase.Nashville Skyline and Wesley Harding at the mo!

I will look into this, Grandads first prosection, was 1892 aged seven for pitch & toss. Lived in the area of the bus station off Manvers St, a world away from.the Promenade!

Welcome Dawn, I recall a couple of Nott's females called Dawn, love to hear more about your blues rock memories! What pub''s & bands do you recall? Where did your Grandmother live?
