We didn't do a great amount of gigs in Accrington, mainly Nelson/Burnley/Blackburn/Manchester, - great room - killer stairs with the piano. Alan |

Incidentally, if you've not seen the Manchesterbeat site before, it's well worth having a shufty - quite a few East Lancs area bands on there.

Ian Smith, rhythm guitar at the time and lived in Clayton. I live in Scotland now but keep in touch via the Accy web. Trevor Gardner was lead guitar, Dave Robinson on Bass, Jim Payne on Drums and Derek Rimmington on vocals. That is if I'm right and GW were originally the Scorchers?
