Hi All.

Just to put it into your heads..New GONG album out now...rewind to You,..and Steve Hillage on glissando.....

More ..Christmas reunion..confirmed!!!

12th December , Philharmonic pub, Hope Street, Liverpool...7ish...Turn up, shout Wally and all your dreams (nightmares) will come true..(Disclaimer>>>>>The management takes no responsibility for dreams that do not come true or indeed nightmares that do!!)..Hope to see you there.. People are already sending me e mail to confirm that they indeed have their Afghans and loons at the ready and are tripping down on that night..I think there are about 16 definite and about 4 possibles..me being one of them..

Next ..I have found and would draw your attention to a website..the owner of the site is a really nice guy and I know you will be interested and love the site as much as I did when I found it...take a look here...   http://www.robbierocks.ch/index.htm

STOP PRESS>> another new page as Andy Jones has found some pics..I had a feeling the reunion would start an attic scramble and it seems to have done just that..other pics have been promised..so get in that attic!!

The reunion was brilliant. There were around 25 - 30 attendees ( is that right?) during the course of the day and a good time was apparently had by all. I have  finished editing and airbrushing the photos ( thanks to me and Arfa especially for this) and have  them up on a whole new page ...you can access it via the menu.  All done and updated . So many new memories..I had to add a page..Considering the state you were all in you have good memories ;-).

There is stuff all over the site and I cannot remember where it all is..Thanks to all who contributed and also if it aint there I lost it so resend it..and anything else.

As an aside. I do get stats for the site.. Yesterday ..there were 129 hits, and this month there have been over 2000!!! hits.. Thats brilliant.. Thanks Rob Dodgson for contributing 2/3ds of those probably!

 Thanks to :- Frank Keegan / Dave (Diddy) Cross / Bazza / Richard Lysons / Iain Parsons / Peter Jones / Fran McManus / Elaine Hill / Rita Pike ( Burgess) / Keith Lamb /Gina Culling / Norman Layne et al for awaiting their moments of glory.If I have missed anyone from this list..tough!

The gig list has had a tidy up and some additions done..Rob Dobies Tull poster is now in place. ..

.Couple of things... We now have a ???   thriving community on FaceBook..Stadiumdaze, many thanks there to Robin Pinguey... so check it out..

Now then.. a couple of people Graham Robertson (ex Supercharge) being one, have mooted that I put some pages on from other '70s venues...eg Empire, Court, Uglys etc..shall I, or is a new site needed? Whatever.. I would need rather a lot of help I think so come on down whoever fancies it ..  Further to this Rob and I have discussed it and we are going to figure out what/how/when we do this ...so start ferreting through your goodies and see what crops up..I still want more and more Stadium stuff so keep on sending me that too....I know its there!!

Cheery Bye for now!
