...rt of the punk era and we saw the Sex Pistols there when they were just starting out – I have to say they didn’t get a very good reception as they couldn’t even start the first song properly and were actually booed off stage which was a first for that club. Their ‘punk’ behaviour almost started a riot in what was normally a peaceful hippy venue!
My mum still wasn’t convinced that Kev was the right person for me and was becoming quite determined to split us up.
