McFly Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 I played with the Hammfatters at one of those Brig o Fitch happenings. It was indeed a tremendous fun. We did a couple of marquee gigs at Kergord which were great fun as well. There's something really good about playing in a field in the middle of summer. Does it still happen?

Well, I [/i]was only 13 and it was the first "gig" I'd ever been to!!I was talking to a bloke in the pub about that gig last night. My first proper gig too. Fantastic!!! Also the first record I bought (or maybe that was Adam & The Ants) After too many bevereges, I often listen to Showaddywaddy. In fact, I'm going to put listen to them now...........

McFly Posted February 25, 2006 Report Share Posted February 25, 2006 New Model Army at the Tingwall Hall many years ago. Can anybody remember? Pure class We (Careless Flow) supported them on that gig. I can't really remember what they were like but i do remember them being really snooty about letting us use their gear.

Njugle Posted February 25, 2006 Report Share Posted February 25, 2006 New Model Army at the Tingwall Hall many years ago. Can anybody remember? Pure class i do remember them being really snooty about letting us use their gear. New Model Army could not have been the superb band they were/are without copious amounts of attitude. Time is a great moderator though, and i believe the singer has reverted from using his stage name "Slade the Leveller", to his real name which is Justin Sullivan. Brilliant gig though. (One of the best bass players ever, Stuart Morrow, in their original line-up, hard act to follow but they've succeeded twice) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marvin Posted March 2, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2006 Yep. And with all the fine events mentioned so far: Dare i say the two Shetland Rock Festivals in the clickimin. They were pretty good. It's seems so long ago that i can hardly remember the line up, so i won't embarass myself trying, but pretty huge in their day. Anybody ken the definitive list? Not even near complete, but :- Deacon BlueToxic EphexThe BolshoiLove and MoneyThe Men They Couldn't HangArrowhead?Tom Morton's bandAPB loads more but my memory is failing!

peeriebryan Posted March 2, 2006 Report Share Posted March 2, 2006 I thought The Smiths played at one of the Shetland Rock Festivals? Afore my time though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Posted March 2, 2006 Report Share Posted March 2, 2006 The Smiths played Shetland in their own right as part of their Meat Is Murder tour in 1985. The gig was disconnected with the Shetland Rock Festival. Unfortunately I, like yourself Brian, was too young to attend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
