OK, maybe I didn't consider the "hall" circuit that big. There were lots
of bands on that circuit back then. They were approx 2,000 capacity
venues and I used to play them years ago and didn't consider that I had
made it. I never played to 100,000 like BJH do in Germany so I guess
they remember them well over there.
I think in Canada as well, as I know their current(non original)bassist
and they still tour Canada every couple of years.
I don't remember them having any major album chart hits in UK, but maybe
its the 70's that I don't remember too good. I seemed to wake up when
punk arrived late 70's.
Due to divisions within BJH there are currently 2 versions of the band,
both playing BJH "hits". I'm not sure if they both still tour and not
really being a fan, I'm too lazy to research this.
With a surname of Monk do you reckon I could get onto the guest list for
Thursdays gig :-)
