The footage at 1:02 to 1:38 was the closing of the star hotel!The pub was a beaut for live music(Kurts coffee shop ,next door was a good place to sober up).The publican said come in one & all ,free piss, no charge,thanks for your support all you Novocastrians.The band was The heroes,locals.10 mins before closing the big fat pig of a seargent,copper, pulls the plug on the band & says go home.He caused the riot,not the locals.Ray martin the next day-Its disgusting-what a total prick he is!!!
