I love Den's perseverance still playing until the end, (or miming playing until the end) when the others had stopped playing and were squabbling. Den continued right through never lifting his fingers out of that barre chord position, and even threw in a few attempts at Pete Townshend leaps and windmills at the end.. Who says the rhythm guitarist wasn't important!?

I saw Bad News live at the Marquee in London. They had Brian May and Jeff Beck come on as guests. In the bar afterwards it was impossible not to bump into a comedy or music legend. A very strange night.

Wow, I wish I had gone. Was working in Denmark St at the time I sold them the bass that I assume Rik smashed up at the end of the gig… 😮
@hopebgood5 ай бұрын
@@vicesquadpunk It was a right laugh mate don't recall any bass smashing tbh but I was probably pissed. All I remember is that they had two nights booked at the Marquee. We saw them the first night and the second night someone threw a glass that cut either Ade Edmondson or Rik Mayall and the gig was abandoned. Well done glass throwing wanker. And you mate....have a good one 😉
