a 1970s Christmas card from The Pirates each one individually signed by Mick, John & Frank |

Our guest tickets to the official launch of Skullduggery |

Next - after the end of the Ace Cafe gig I
swapped sticks with Frank and I've now got his sticks on the wall in my Diner at home ( Dunno what Frank did with mine ) |
 |
The gig that never was we got the first four tickets ( numbered 001 ~ 004 ) to be issued for the Melksham gig which was cancelled due to Mick's heart attack.

From Melody Maker - 10 September 1977 Dave recently bought a back issue and lo and behold there was this advert of "forthcoming" dates. We wonder how many the guys can remember !! There's certainly some unusual venues - my favourite for sheer novelty value has to be Jenkinsons Bar. Did you spot the incorrect song title ? |
