The Moody Blues, The Crazy World Of Aurther Brown, Love Affair in Yeovil. Ther seemed to be local bands playing everywhere those days, I thought I was at the center of the music universe.
Glad that you are playing again, it never leaves you no matter how many years go by, its like an alter ego sat on your shoulder telling you "go on you can do that, you know you want to" Ive just had a dance with the devil, had 2 lumps removed from my bowel on Monday, looking forward now after some dark days, but watch this space I cant wait to get back up again.
Good luck Dave
