yes i do i went there to see the ruts , armed force ,and a band called v2 i was underage when we went there i used to see tony wilson bobbing about in there when the place was threatened to be raided by the old bill i had to hide under the stage disgusting lol
Yeh Ozzy could be a nutter sometimes, but we always got on OK.
I remember your band.
I was drummer for Protest. We played there loads of times. I think we might have shared the same billing as your band on at least one occasion.
I was the drummer in the support band at that Exploited gig. It was my first ever live performance. I'd only been with this particular band for a couple of weeks when we played there. We played the Mayflower quite a lot after that. I still see the odd copy of our 7" EP - "Vinyl Overload" on ebay from time to time.
I played there in about 1980 singing for a band called The Sh1ts!
I used to go to the afternoon gigs too. Great memories.
Sadly Im still going at it via the medium of Ukulele Punk!

I told you the story of how I got my ear pierced at the Duke of Bridgewater pub in 1991, didn't I McT?
Good times.
I don't remember broken glass, but I do remember drinking lots of Snakebite & Black prior to.
People I know drank brown splits, and called them Shirley Basseys.
