Oh my, moved to Cyprus in 2006, Bruce played at 3 gigs to wish me farewell, but due to holdups, I could not go. On the last one, he said and I quote "Now are you going to fuck off"?? Loved you fella, you remember I travelled all over to see you. God rest your soul.
Bruce played in a group called White lightning with an old mate Jerry hearn. Probably got the spelling wrong but also festa and the vomits. I remember them playing in the mucky duck and London Arms in Woolston Southampton UK 🇬🇧
That's Jerry playing in most of the video there. He could have made the effort to learn some of Brucies originals for this gig, Just sayin' :-). And I moved to Southampton in 84 or so, caught the end of his residency at Mado's wine bar with Fester & the vomits. Fester was their drummer. What a venue. Shame it got raided as dealers took the piss by doing it too openly. Shut down after that.
wow, a brief shot of Chris...haven't seen him in 30 years since Checkpoint!
Is it in that band Gordon Haskell and Martin Smith (former & original Gentle Giant drummer) played in early 1995?
Looking for some of Bruce’s family. My Dad Paul was every close friends to him. Feel free to reply to my comment if you’d like to reach out. ❤️
I was friends with Bruce & Fred, the drummer, I went to school with Fred, Bruce was fab. So sorry for your loss.
