I auditioned for drummers job many years back. Turned up at the audition, and Duncan asked me what I wanted to play, I said the whole 1st album, had borrowed a copy from Alices resterant (Nicked) and learnt the whole thing, We promptly played the whole thing. I had not played for months and my hands had softened up so by the end there was blood everywhere from my blistered hands. Cannot remember if they offered me the gig, but it was a time I will remember forever.

I remember watching this lot at the Bristol Granary Club, they used to do a fantastic live show and deserved to be huge.

Nope, I was mates with a bloke who did some advertising for you, the Ferme in North London. He got us (me, him and my bro) into the Southall record deal party. I first saw Mournblade at the Standard in '85.

Really good to see Duncan and the lads again. I remember, Electric Stadium, Chadwell Heath, & Royal Standard, Walthamstow, Gigs.

All The best, Cliff, the then DJ.
