Hi Trev ever come across a band called the Tatters, they are a lads who were around in the sixties/seventies, I only know the drummer, and he's called Trevor too, think his surname is Cunliffe but not 100%, think he ran a car sales business opposite the old accy nick on Spring Gardens

Hiya Jaysay, no not heard of Tatters,Trevor Cunliffe seem's to ring-a-bell but I can't put a face to it. Trev.

When he was younger he was a dead ringer for Bobby Vee

Hiya Jaysay, still don't know Trevor Cunliffe, been talking to Steve Farnsworth tonight I told him about this site, seemed interested,he was in the motor-trade long time so he could possibly have known the other Trevor, i'll ask him next time we speak.All the Best Trev.

Pity Trevor Gardener or Dave Robinson dont contribute, I believe they still live in the area, I know Dave Ayrton the manager & roadie at the time Lives in Grindleton. Maybe somebody knows them.

The guy you are thinking about is/was called Dickie Rimington who died a few years ago.

My Two brothers still see Trevor Cunliffe, a couple of times a year so I will email them and see what he's doing,

Alan Gilmartin · 30-07-2010, 00:26

Got a couple of cards for Scorchers & Cyclons, I'll pop them in an envelope and mail them to Brian at the Music Box. Try and find photos to.

Hiya Alan, been in Music Box today filled Brian in about what you're sending. He knew who you are, but has'nt been on this site, he said he's going to have a look later. Found some Cavern Scorchers photo's,also been reunited with Jim [Scorchers drummer] great stuff ! All the best Trev.
