"There was many a showband musician who tinkered away with a blast of Hendrix in the back of the wagon, but who put away such childish things to don the showband fatigues, and churn out the old reliables for the unfortunate punters." (Source:RoryOn http://www.roryon.com/colin.html )

What we're looking for:

• Showband pictures from the past (the hand-out pictures you got at the end of the dance, remember?!) or snapshots of showbands or showband members.
