Ah nostalgia,
1978,The Clash at the Peterborough Wirrina.I think its still the most electrifying concert I've ever been to.
Sorry no pics of my bleached blonde hair,bondage jeans and "destroy" t-shirt.(Not a pretty sight!)

Oh,and the bike I owned at the time,.....Triumph Bonneville 750 (US spec).
UNC 116S where are you now?

I was there .. I was there. A level year at the Kings School blatting around on a Honda CB250 - OKV 443J

What a place the Wirrina was. Always remember roller skating there...........great place to meet the girls when I was 15.

But...........................gotta say the Clash were good but, in my book, were eclipsed the following year by the Stranglers ........... what a gig that was

A little admission........... the first band I ever saw was Mott the Hoople at the Hammersmith Odeon in 1973. The support band were pretty good but a bit weird, 'specially the lead singer. My mate thought they were crap but I thought they'd go places cos I loved their closing number. They were called "Queen" of all things and they closed their short set with a fantastic song titled 'Seven Seas of Rhye'.

Dunno what ever happened to them after that...........disappeared without trace I think
