LOL! No, thats my very good friend Charlie who was filming for a dvd on the night. He's been my dear friend for 23 years. The man is a Legend! This is a guy who has toured Europe as a drummer with the Eurovision band 'CoCo' in 1978. The stories he has told me... lol

In fact, for all that met Charlie that night, here is a clip of the band he was in 'CoCo' on TOTP. A Clean shaven Charlie on the drums...

NB: Charlie's idea on the night of Eurovision was halfway through the song to get up, kick over the drum kit, give 2 fingers up to the camera while saying 'Fu*k off' and storming off. He said it would have gone down in history! He regrets he never did it. The lead singer Terry Bradford was sh*tting it all night thinking Charlie may have done what he said...

Hi Folks,
Finally joined the Forum to say how much I enjoyed the night at the Longhirst Hall,fantastic venue for a great night of celebration of Shaky's music.When Sean first told me there was a fans party up North,I said in for a penny in for a pound,it will be a different Friday night to what I'm used to so yeah we'll go & Emma & Sean can stay with us but there was always the trepidation of what I was letting myself in for....but after arriving & getting over the 1st initial nervous 10 minutes & thanked by Maggie just chatting at bar & asking if I was on the forum,I could sense the friendliness.There was fantastic sets by Cadillac 59,Red Alert & of course Ricky,and my limited knowledge of Shaky's music (3 x 7"" singles in early 80's) was soon extended & I came away having had one of the best Friday nights in a while as well as meeting some lovely people (in no particular order) Mark,Kris,Trudi & husband,Sally,Paul,Ricky,Jackie & Maggie & Terry (apologies if missed some people out but I'm sure you can tell me off when meeting up at Indigo) 4 weeks today BRING IT ON!!!
After Kris had surprised me with his vocal chords in the Shaky karaoke we retired to the pub for a nightcap & a game of Pool.....but Kris & Mark you may have won the battle in the Pool.....but Sean & I are going to win the War.....look forward to revenge.......

Thanks again to you all for making it such a great night & looking forward to meeting up again very soon,from a newly converted Shaky fan,

Steve

Hi Steve and welcome to the forum. You'll soon realise we are all completely insane ha ha. I'm made up you enjoyed the night last friday, please try and get to the next one which will probably be back in London, We all stay over so you won't feel like your on your own.
Once again, welcome and BEWARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Steve,
welcome to the board (Glad you got round to joining us).
Yes, it was a fantastic party and I'm so pleased that even the non 'die hard' fans had a ball and that you have now been converted lol.
Can't believe the Indigo is only 4 weeks away you'll definitely be converted after seeing the real macoy

Looking forward to the meet up in 4 weeks as well as seeing the real McCoy for the 1st time....I'm sure if the next party is down in London Sean's hospitality will be offered meaning I'll be there like a heartbeat...

3:30 in to see some awesome guitar playing from Ossie!

It's a shame about the sound through the camera/you tube, but nice to see it!
