Part N+1: Merthyr's Other Guitar Hero!
StEvil: Apart from the Patti, you?ve played a couple of other gigs this year. Was the attendance in Nottingham (Terry?s home town) better than at the Patti?
Dai: It?s always fun to play at the Patti, however many turn out. Nottingham (Kirkby Blues ?n? Rock Festival) was a small outdoor festival with 2-3,000 people. Our set was memorable for us. We were on this pneumatic stage (like a pump-up tent kind of affair). The sun was shining directly at us and the heat was collosal. I?ve never known anything like it. I thought I was going to black out and Marco James ended up with burnt eyelids. However, we got a good reception. It was strange seeing the same faces in the crowd from 25-years ago ? just a lot less hair!
Actually, following that gig, there was a post on the Manband bulletin board which went like this: ?I finally got to see Merthyr?s other guitar hero on Saturday?
Dai: I wonder who that can be! Yes, of course I know Micky quite well coming from the same town.
