    Amazing gig wont it Alex! @Merlin Cat
    We were looking out for you from the gallery above but clearly didn't spot you.
    @Mrs Busmonkey wants to know if your head is sore coz you shaved it?
    Probably the only way to hide in that crowd...
    Rude boys, rude boys!

    :) no, it’s sore because of the lager! I should have pushed to the front centre stage but think I’m too short for you to spot me even then! I will put my dreads up like a pineapple next time to make me taller :)

    I’ve got rude boy chant in my head now!

    Did you wear good outfits? My fave was a bloke bit older than me with Harrington, stay pressed trousers, Ben Sherman shirt and fab ox blood loafers.

    Nah, just dm's and a t.
    It all got a bit fractious below us at one point but just old boys pretending they were oppressed youths.
    Thought it was funny when Horace said last time they played the Roxy in '78 they were spat at.
    Gentler times my arse, we were horrid little Marmites 'back in the day'...x

    Horace Panter’s book, Ska’d For Life, is a really good read if you get the chance :thumbsup:

    Most of the lighting is a nightmare..to much of it is moving,and so many come on and off towards the crowd..ruining photographs..

    Did you dance lots?
     
  19. Yep, gratuitous use of moving fixtures, I thought that’d stop once they became mainstream, but no! They could programme them to go off while repositioning for the next cue - could be lazy programming or part of the design.
