So, starting with PLAYPEN, a band featuring Jonny Slut (Specimen), Matthew Seligman (R.I.P.) ex-Soft Boys, Steve Monti of Curve, Carol who ended up big in Cyprus and Nick Hallam who wen on to Stereo MCs. More than a bit of quality there! Seen here at Queen Elizabeth College, March 8th, 1986.

Then on to the Bull & Gate on March 8th, 1991 for THE DEEP SEASON, which was basically Jim Jiminee under another name and a little less lively.
