Live at the BBC

Venue: BBC Studios, Brighton

Present: All

Well, a few weeks previously, the band won the Southern Counties Radio Juke Box Jury style programme with a record breaking 29 out of 30. Penance for such a feat took the form of having to perform live on air. A new addition to the Loopy CV.

So, the boys plus groupies, travelled all the way across to the BBC studios in Brighton.

Interviewed by the presenter Phil Jackson, the boys managed to get across that in spite of their age they were still just as prone to sounding cheap and tacky as the rest of the younger models of pop wannabes. At least they didn't sound delusional.

The evening ended with a pint back at the Sussex Brewery in Emsworth.
