"8th August 1992 - Finsbury Park - the Madnificent seven rode again, skinheads were in tears, an earthquake was recorded, it was possibly the most electric atmosphere I have ever experienced when the seven walked on stage and stood there in front of 36,000 fans for what seemed like forever until one of the seven took a microphone and uttered.... ..."Hey you, don't watch that, watch this, this is the heavy heavy monster sound, the nuttiest sound around, so if you've come off the street and you're beginning to feel the heat, well listen buster, you better start to move your feet, to the rockingest rocksteady beat of Madness....ONE STEP BEYOND!!".... ...and the crowd went wild...that moment will live with me for the rest of my life" That sounds so cool | |||

"In January 1978 Frank Zappa did a series of gigs at Hammersmith Odeon (now the Appolo). I was lucky enough to have been at the second gig, lucky because not only did he perform a lot of his well known songs, it was the start of him experimenting as a solo guitarist. I had always loved Zappa, but up to that point i had no idea just how good a guitarist he was. A totally indulgent gig that had all of us in the audience mezmerized...............a real game changer for Frank and made me see him in a completely different light." Is this the "Shut up and play your guitar" era? I'm woefully ignorant about Frank Zappa but have maximum respect for him. | |||

The shut up era actually started in the early 70's, but Frank didn't play anything solo live until the "Titties And Beer" tour which was the gig i was referring to at Hammersmith Odeon. He didn't actually release any solo guitar albums until the early 80's. | |||

No not trying to catch you out . Genuinely interested . You see i was just that to young to really follow punk in those years . However i remember the older kids at school all becoming punks like almost overnight ..And the girls !! Looking like whores and dominatrixes with all the make up and stockings on show .. I was massively influenced but was always playing catch up because of my age .. Anyway fast forward a few years .. And i met a guy and became friends with who had a boutigue on the Kings Road in 77 . He had been copying Seditionary and Sex clothing , but Viviene sued him so he hid it in a warehouse in Tooting south london . I had a market stall in Portobella Road , and took it off his hands and started flogging it .. And then one morning as i was setting up and a guy appeared inquiring " where the fuck did you get this shit from " .. And it was Cookie !! .. He was living in Spain at the time and wanted to buy a load to ship back over . And he knew the story as well of how it came about .. Anyway we did a deal and we chatted a lot cause we had breakfast a couple of times . And we talked about that Gig, cause its folklore you know , It was the pistols first ever gig ( they got 20 quid for it ) and he told me loads about it .. and it was pretty amazing .. Cookie reckons they sounded quite tight at first but Maclearen got them to de tune half way through the set cause he wanted them to get booed off .. Just be great to hear from someone who was actually there on the that night .. You and i both know that if everyone who says they were there , where there , the pier would probably collapsed | |||

And we talked about that Gig, cause its folklore you know , It was the pistols first ever gig ( they got 20 quid for it ) and he told me loads about it .. and it was pretty amazing .. Cookie reckons they sounded quite tight at first but Maclearen got them to de tune half way through the set cause he wanted them to get booed off .. Just be great to hear from someone who was actually there on the that night .. You and i both know that if everyone who says they were there , where there , the pier would probably collapsed " Interesting.... I saw the clash there as well the 2nd time I saw them they had a mix table halfway down the ballroom and I can remember thinking wow these are getting big | |||
