No Garinda he was a mate though. Lived in Accy up till he was 20, used to drink in the Hargreaves with him, (and numerous other reprobates).

Lol, cool small world. I remember going to The Castle in Blackburn and he used to be there with his mate, a David Sylvian clone called Nigel.

I'm glad it's not you, as him and his mates from his Graphics course hated me for being a pretentious ******, and held an exhibition outside King Goerges Hall pretending to mimic my work. Don't know where they got that idea from????:D

Hi StanAccy ;) Yes made it finally.

Re: Hi all

Blimey could have been 2 of them then. Cause the one I knew went to Accy College and then started work at some engineering company I think.

(Don't know what's scarier David Sylvian clone or Gary Numan, good job there wasn't a Phil Oakey one to give you a full set :))

Re: Hi all

Erm I think you'll find David Sylvian was once voted 'Most beautiful man in the world' and how I agree.......<swoon> Used to have a Smash Hits poster of him on my bedroom wall hehe

Re: Hi all

Maybe, but still find the idea of folk trying to be him scary:eek:

Maybe because I couldn't have looked like anyone at that age except possibly someone with sad hair in a band like Samson or Saxon:mad:

There was a Gary Numan clone in Clayton, or Harwood, a year older than me, I hope it's not you!;)

This thread is getting a bit scary. I did my art foundation at Blackburn as well. I'm guessing that as I'm 41 and you're 40 I was there the year before you.

OMG,but I did the pre foundation course as well, so we must have been there at the same time. We need to swap names, unless you were a hippy chick then, and I would have looked down on you.;)

Re: Hi all

I remember a David Sylvian clone from the New Era , but she was a girl! There were quite a few Numanoids, male and female and a Phil Oakey lookalike. Short, podgy but Russ did have the hair. Gayle was a Boy George lookalike... no offence!

Re: Hi all

Oh how I love this New Romantic nostalgia! I also have fond memories of another good night out, the Kurfew Klub which was held at the Berkeley on Thursday nights round about late 80s? Anyone remember that? Every time I hear Homicide by 999 I think of that place.......<drifts off yet again into more musical memories>
