Taken at the entrance of Blackwood 'Stute in (I think) 1986. Recorded on a Fostex 4 (or 8 track) - can't remember now. Guitarist in my (then) band recorded it - in James's mam & dad's living room (while Monty was in work - lol). I played (drums) on the last handfull of bars, as Sean was only learning to play kit back then. Was then mixed in my mate's bedroom. Loooong time ago now
This is probably the only pic where Sean looks higher than Nicky xD
[aaaawwww, they were all so cute!!! <3]

such strength, what a great song like someone said before it's gem, but sadly it seems it's a forgotten gem.
