Thanks for the link smiffythebull, interesting site.
This has got me reminiscing about all the bands i saw in that era. Saw Diamond Head at the Princeville also a brilliant reggae band called Jab Jab.

Could the club have been the Thornton Labour club - I saw loads of bands there over the years.

yeah, - Princeville on thursday nights, newcy brown -some cracking bands - I remember the Lee Kosmin band getting a hard time as they played some wacky chacky funk and the audience was waiting for some rock - Son of a Bitch though- fantastic!
Queens Hall - Vinegar Joe, John Dummer, Pat Travers, etc - and in my earlier incarnation I went to see the Pioneers and Millie Small at the Textile Hall ( I think Derrick Morgan was on too)- Hole in the wall, Penny Farthing - god, im getting older by the minute.......

You're right, the Goldsboro is closed, as it has been so many times over recent years. It last stayed open for anything like a sustained period when 'Big Jim' (Wright) had it, a number of years ago. Looks now as though it's going to be offices or maybe a restaurant, they've obviously spent some serious money on it but no actual sign of it opening (as anything) at the moment.

I can't remember bands ever playing the golsborough, nor can I remember any other name to be honest, and I've been a regular at the Corn Dolly since the middle eighties when I first started at Royal Mail. I might have missed the bands though as I was also working in bands myself for a fair amount of the period covered, I rarely found time to go out and 'enjoy myself', if you know what I mean.

I can also recommend both the book and the cd collection which I bought when first released.It made me search around my 'collection of 'Bradford' stuff and for those of a certain age..Derek Lister's book 'Bradford's Rock 'n' Roll' covering the whole music scene in Bradford between 1959 and 1965,is an absolute gem! Fab memories of bygone youthful indulgences in the old place.

Maybe the OK Bulls could get a bunch of the old timers to take turns to do the entertainment? Certainly there's plenty I would definitely love to see again and there'd be a pretty sizeable target audience of nostalgic rockers, wouldn't there?

Is this before or during the match?

I'll have a word with Mick and Omar, but frankly even though money will be tight in SL2013, you might just be past your prime by next year, so I can't guarantee an offer.

I'll take payment in curries if Omar is interested.

Your contract is for 5 years, and your 2 chicken masalas will be paid in arrears, subject to a minimum of 100 SL appearances. One onion bhaji bonus per trophy won. Report for training at 4.30.

I'll be there in 4 minutes.

Saw Limelight loads of time in the Wakefield area,other bands doing similar type of music at the same time were Bitter suite, Method and a band called Ponders end whose singer was John Parr of St Elmo's fire fame.
