  1. I saw Roger Whiticker at a shopping centre in Calgary, Alberta in the 80's and by chance got to talk to him about his song Durham Town, he said he wrote it while going to Durham University and said he loved his time in the north of England and loved the people of the north.

  2. I was wondering if the swings are still their, on the south side of the river blyth. Went there a lot as a kid and loved it. We had to get to it by either going over the bridge or through it and had to run from the train a couple of times, scary. I had only one accident while playing there. there was two swings and me and mi mate Tetti swung at the same time and hit each other in mid flight, i let go and fell in to a blackberry bush and had to be carried home bye my friends. Good times......... ;)

  3. no no no, Frank Zappa has a great band & great music :P<_<B)

    I have to agree somewhat with mrs vic that Frank Zappa is not for everyone, little rude with the words in his songs but as a kid we listerned to it all the time and went to see them in concert, our seats were so far back and so high up we could touch the roof of the arena. Frank Zappa and his band looked like little ants on stage.

    Just wondering what concerts you lot went too, here are a few of the bands I seen:

    Rolling Stones

    Journey

    Kansas

    Eddie Money, all them at same concert early 70's in Buffalo USA

    The Who

    Rush

    Max Webster

    Saga

    Goddo

    Van Hallen

    April Wine
