hi john my dad was friends with andy holdoffs brother mick. i got him to wave to me and my brother at the end of the show once. great to see them again thanks ian.
Oh my goodness, I googled the band because I knew my Uncle John played with them, and he's on here! John Drury, the dude at the back with the big sousaphone. It is amazing seeing him because he died in 1992. Thanks for posting this because I have searched around for him before and got nothing xx
Hi John, no, I played with the band at the Lake Hotel, Belle Vue (was that a tough venue LOL) and depped at the Garter for John whenever he had time off for a bit.Then I joined the Blue Lotus J.M. for a few years.Still playing down in Cornwall ! Cheers, brian.
GREAT! GREAT! GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
