I came across the following website for the old Soho rock club which may be of interest.

http://www.themarqueeclub.net/calendar

 

The site includes a chronological list of all the gigs played there over the years.  For those of us of a certain age, this reads like a Who's Who of 70's Rock.

The classic ATF gigs at the club are of course listed, including some that are not on the Friends of ATF gig list.

Also included is their gig on Friday 15 December 1978.  IMO, the greatest gig that I have ever been to by anyone anywhere (which includes gigs by Yes, Wishbone Ash, BB KIng and even gigs that I have played at).

PS  By my calculation, I have now made "Groupie" - woohoo!

I went to 2 gigs as i was the support act.

Rob & the Rustlers
Now there was a band
2 members went on to join The Darts
I retired from music for a while then formed Neddy Fender & The Delmontes
a pre cursor to the Fender Brothers. Guess who the guitarist was. Just come back from the USA and in a band that had split and couldn't do anything for a couple of years. Is it any wonder PAK took so long to happen! But enough about me.
Who was at the Rainbow and Music Machine ATF gigs? The Golden Lion pub?
The Greyhound pub?
