Eric Clapton, Jack Bruce, Ginger Baker, in Folkestone, wow...
[leave a comment]- Cream 1967I saw the Cream round about that time in a small club upstairs down Tontine street? Did Tofts move at any time cos I saw the Pretty Things there as well (also about that time?) Les. - frisby1947
- Cream 1967Cream never played Tofts they indeed played Micks Flamenco club situated in Tontine Street. The place is now a club called Pipers and is still trading as such today. - djshax
- So people say Cream never played at Toft's...What's this all about then? Thanks to Simon Brint for this ticket scan... People say it wasn't Tofts, it was Mick's Flamenco Club (more recently Pipers), so did Toft's move more than once? Or did Tofts move the gig? Or did they promote the gig at another club? Anyone got details? Lots more opinion here. -

[leave a comment]- Wilde Flowers 1967I was a founder member of Wilde Flowers along with my brother Hugh Hopper, Robert Wyatt and Kevin Ayers and later included Dave & Richard Sinclair. We were based in Canterbury and were the originators of the 'Canterbury Sound' which later spawned two successful bands: Soft Machine and Caravan. As Wilde Flowers we played many gigs in the mmid-sixties in Kent and Sussex and London and at Tofts we had a regular slot and it was one of our favourite venues especially as we supported a lot of bi - Brian

Lawks, is it some sort of warm up? I don't like them but it's a big deal for Folkestone I suppose. Get in! Getting tickets just in case the support is good. Ooh, SOLD OUT already!
[leave a comment]- Stereophonics at the Leas Cliff Hall on sale now!Well, in five minutes... 8th July, looks like it might be a warm up type thing, they don't have a big tour on the go. get tickets here, this will sell out fast! See you on ebay... -
- Psst, wanna buy some Stereophonics tickets?8th July, looks like it might be a warm up type thing, they don't have a big tour on the go. Get tickets here, this will sell out fast! See you on ebay... Man I hate the Stereophonics, what am I talking about? And I was one minute too late for the Folkestone Gerald mailout, so I've missed some commission there. If you are reading this in the future and you really want these tickets that I have, make me a good offer for them, or have a look on ebay. Don't go to many gigs these days, and whe -
- Who will buy my Stereophonics ticketsSlight repost from Folkestone Gerald and my blog / forum there: I can't decide whether or not to go to Stereophonics next Tuesday, we have messed up a bit in arranging a lie in the following morning so it's not really convenient now. Do you want my stereophonics tickets? Make me an offer. I half thought I'd put these tickets on ebay, but as with the last time I thought this I couldn't be bothered. And now it looks like we might really have to go! Clare is not working from home the next day -
