[Clarky]

Hi all, we are on relatively early doors at about 8-ish. Maybe see some of you South Coast BCers?

Here's the flyer

i put 999 on in the early 80's, were a great bunch to work with, good luck with the fest.

I would love to come along although I would probably look like someones grandad but we are playing ourselves that night so good luck.

Ditto - am playing a barn in distant Devon, must be mad! (As a dep, don't hit me...)

Used to share rehearsal space with 999 in '79, a very tidy pop band - never thought of them as authentic punks but what did I know? Nearly got into a fight with Billy Idol for claiming Generation X sounded like a second rate Deep Purple!

As I was a foot taller than him he chickened out.

I bet that wasn't in Billy Idol's autobiography!

Thanks for good wishes all

PS, despite my rampaging and excruciating ear infection (bloody hope it clears up for Saturday) we had a rehearsal tonight and I learned that the dep from the Birmingham gig hadn't learned our songs and missed most of his cues so that it was genuinely a mess. The other two complimented me on my playing tonight

The deep, chocolate-y taste of satisfaction.

A little reminder of our gig on the South Coast tonight - I'm just about to jump in the car for the drive down there

We are on early-ish, possibly beore 8pm as one of the bands has pulled out
