Back in my home town / country I used to play in a band imitating the Shadows ( 60-s )
White shirts / butterfly ties / silk blue vests and swaying the guitar from left to right with the music ( probably too early for most of you )
Then all change Beatles and Stones came along - transformation into black Beatles jackets and shoes etc
And hey ! Can't buy me love !
I was one of the first hippies in town and what an exciting time it was
Remember my dad locking my guitar away in a wardrobe and telling me I should do my home work- A levels
But Rock 'n roll came first and the band needed me ! So I took the door off its hinges, took the guitar out of the hood replacing it with a billiard queu. Looked the same..
There I was playing in front of a dancing crowd at 1 am knowing that my dad thinking I was studying hard
Failed all my exams and all hell brake lose
Next came the Yardbirds and played in a band called the Hungry Sect
What fun the sixties -  Revolution and Rock 'N Roll !
Nowadays I love playing the Bongos when the wife is away....

Stu was right about the solo pursuits of at least one of the PJ members.

I am definitely a child of the sixties but was not allowed to wear sandals, flowing robes and a flower in my hair. :(

Just lived them by proxy, like a bystander viewing a royal parade but it was still fun watching all the rebellion and watching how young people all of a sudden found a voice.

Really Great times. 

I was not a Mod, nor was I a Rocker.  I think it was the Rockers who used the cafe called The Jay but I can't for the life of me remember the cafe used by the Mods  It was in the street where the fish market is somewhere between Dupre's Fish Mongers and where Hatley's the Hairdresser is now.  Please someone come up with that cafe's name it is driving me crazy trying to remember, so much so that I will have to visit the archives to find out.

Bongos:  Too much information moot!

Cali ???

2 minutes Mr Smith on a Saturday afternoon in the Blue Fox was a great way to spend your Saturday afternoon getting steaming. On the odd occassion when they didnt shut then re open you could go there at 1pm and leave at 1am but that was back in the day when there was somewhere to keep all pissheads in one place!!!

Rico, what ever happened to the Rythm Collission come back, heard so much about it but it has never happened, or did i miss it. Hope not.
