Yeah, luckily the tait hall is still standing. Not much goes on there now apart from coffee mornings and blood donations. Shame really.

My tastes are famously eclectic

My absolute favourites would include The Beatles and Metallica ( saw them LIVE at the M.E.N arena !)

The drummer in Pink Floyd, Nick Mason has a band called Saucerful of Secrets - they play early Pink Floyd songs.

I was wondering if it is worth seeing them live?

By the end of 1975 & 1976, they hired Lead Guitarist Tommy Bolin
did some shows
Young Cool Guitarist Tommy Bolin
then took the wrong drugs
and died just aged 25.
Dec 4th 1976


[Bolin died from an overdose of heroin and
other substances, including alcohol,
cocaine and barbiturates.
He is buried in Calvary Cemetery in
Sioux City, Iowa.]


After Ritchie Blackmore left Deep Purple,
they picked Tommy Bolin.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tommy_Bolin


Tommy Bolin used the tape echo effect box
like no other Guitarist

[The Echoplex was almost like
another instrument to him]

Have you listened to Piper at the gates of dawn? That's likely to be the era he is playing from. It's very different from their later work
