Hello

Ok cheers 

I've never uploaded or downloaded any music to this site I don't think you can. However you can copy and paste URLs from say Youtube which is what people are doing on the Virtual Jukebox thread. I don't use Ipads so I can't help you with how to do that though, sorry.

@jonsey I’m not the best at this social media stuff but how do you download upload music to this site I use a iPad 

your correct recorded at the city hall picked up vinyl coy few weeks ago in Camden Market 

Also saw Motörhead in St Albans 83 with Brian Robertson Iron Maiden in Dunstable 82 Number of the beast tour sadley Dunstable now a Asda St Albans has a few live bands not as many as the early 80s

I have a nice Strat Plus in lipstick red but don't seem to have the patience to sit down and really learn it.  I get as far as a few chords etc. then things come up and I stop practising.  Maybe if I can ever get a less up and down life...

I have Hawkwind live 79 will have a look fantastic acoustics as good as Hammersmith Odeon avoid Wembley arena awful sound 

went to the O2 to see ELO fantastic sound great gig Jeff Lynn is a one man hit machine 

I'm not too bad with large crowds as long as I can get out of them reasonably easily.

The worst thing for me about rock gigs these days are firstly the volume; I've always used cotton wool (as far back as my late teens) or more recently ear-plugs as I have a bit of tinnitus but also because I find it hard to distinguish the different instruments without and it all becomes a distorted mush. I like the feel of loud music physically moving me but I hate it all distorted or badly mixed. I also have back problems so haven't played live in a band for nearly 3 years now and even going to gigs is less appealing because of the pain of standing for so long.

Hawkwind's Live 79 LP was recorded at St Albans City Hall if I remember correctly. 

we all need a cave!

Yes remember Rose Tattoo Angry Anderson 

Hawkwind always played St Albans or Queensway hall Dunstable last time I saw them they had Dumpys rusty nuts supporting 

I must ask how do you get on with the large crowds I can’t stand shopping centres big supermarkets artificial light noise people find it exhausting just thinking about it but survived rock concerts maybe i was running on adrenaline 

I will hopefully get a house next year going to put a log cabin up for radios and my own space 

I saw Vardis supporting Hawkwind in Oct 1980, good band. I saw Rainbow in 1981 too but at Stafford Bingley Hall with Rose Tattoo supporting.

Sounds like she's a keeper... do it!

Also saw Thin Lizzy on that tour on the Sunday Reading Festival first started seeing bands in 81 NWOBHM Vardis St Albans City Hall February 81 was my first gig. first gig in London Rainbow at the Rainbow Theatre Findsbury Park July 81 with Joe Lynn Turner 

To be honest haven’t really used radio in a while my ex hated me using them now at my dads thinking of putting one in my car have a new partner she encourages my eccentric past times 

Couldn’t agree more sold out to the states big time 

Yeah WS 78 - 82 were their best years, I saw that line-up at Donington MOR 81. I do like 1987 but it wasn't really proper WS it was more like Coverdale's American pop-metal experiment as he was desperate to break the States. 

I've seen Gary Moore heaps of times over the years and Lizzy once in 1983 with Sykes but never together. I wasn't allowed to go to gigs until mid 1980 so missed the Black Rose tour.

Also seen Micky Moody and Bernie Masden can’t beat a bit of early Whitesnske

Nice guitars thought about Brian May guitar but always wanted a Les Paul was lucky enough to see Thin Lizzy and see Gary Moore live love the sound through a Marshall stack I’ll leave Brian to sound ike Brian
