Looks like you and Nigel started something. The pics are great. Maybe someone should start a 'back in the day' photo thread. Instead of "Where are they now?", it could be "Where were they then?". It takes real courage to show ourselves as we were 20, 30, 40 years ago, but it sure is fun. Let the brave step forward.

While exposing ourselves in pictures from 'back in the day' takes a certain amount of courage, what would be really brave would be to post any recorded music from those days...

It's one thing to find ourselves in love with modern technology and mechanical accompaniment as we get older, but to listen to what we do now and then compare it to how we played and sounded 'back in the day' with those behemoth keyboards and a REAL band with fire and passion (and wacky outfits ) might bring to light just how much LESS we are willing to accept, these days...

That's me kneeling on the right......(scary
This was one of my first R&R bands.
Back then I played such keyboards as the Hammond B3, Farfisa Compact, Vox Continental, Fender Rhodes.

Hi Nigel,
small world.
That's my old school.
I did years 7 to 12 there, I went to tech instead of high school.
I'd left by the 70's.
