 The Exciting Adventures of The Hat!

Woody goes on tour and THE HAT goes on ahead

New victim TONY OHORA

In respect of the content of this site generally... I cannot vouch for the accuracy of much of what follows. Wherever I have cast back in my memory to those teenage times I have tried to be honest, but memories are strange beasts. I have, wherever possible, checked with friends who were with me at the time, but who is to say they remember any better than I. If at the end of the day I have left you with at least an impression of what life was like during the seventies then it's probably been worth it.

"Not that it matters, but most of what follows is true..."

Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid

They would walk the strip at night and dream they saw their names in lights....

Steve Priest, Brian Connolly, Mick Tucker and Andy Scott. It was never the same after they split up. That first Monday when Tony Blackburn played FUNNY FUNNY as his record of the week I was hooked. I set the alarm for an hour earlier so I wouldn't miss it the rest of the week. Then they got heavier and heavier. I was a sixteen with the Sixteens, but turned over to Burn on the Flame - What a great year 1974 was! And the Hammersmith, for the LEVEL HEADED TOUR! What a gig that was! I got Steve's can of Skol, and Johnny Mogs got a bit of carpet and abuse from the stage crew.

CONTENTS - HERE for all of the past articles and tales of gigs and loads of pics.
