    The good old days eh, I went 100's of gigs there together with the Hammersmith Odeon, Roundhouse, Wembley etc throughout the 70's and eighties as a fully fledged punk. Oddly enough I now play in a band doing Ramones, Clash, Pistols, Stranglers, Undertones and even The Toy dolls covers together with other stuff in true Ramones style!
