    If anyone lives near Reading (uk), there is an exhibition at Reading museum, celebrating the first ever Reading festival (1971) - at which Rory and his band stole the show. Fascinating exhibition of musical and social history but the star exhibit is the Tele Rory played at the festival. The Gallagher estate have loaned the guitar plus Rory’s AC30 amp/blues slide and other bits and bobs etc. I have no connection with the museum or the exhibition - I just happen to live nearby - but the chance to press your nose to the glass (as I did myself) and look at Rorys guitar and amp at such close quarters is too good to miss. The exhibition runs to January 2022 and is free admission!

    Laundromat...the first song of Rory’s I really got into when I was 14 or 15. I still love it :) I only saw him once, at the Marquee in Wardour St, which was an amazing night. I saw Band of Friends in Spain, with Ted McKenna, and they were fantastic. This music is immortal.

    I first saw Rory about 1977 on American TV, Don Kirshner’s Rock Concert. I was absolutely blown away. I then caught them locally about 1980 at a little place in Schaumburg Illinois called Beginnings. I caught Gerry with Davy Knowles about two years ago in Evanston Illinois at a little spot called Space. I met both Rory and Gerry. Both nice guys. Fine music.

Seeing Gerry and Brendon play with NBZ was as good as I got as I'd only known about Rory for a couple of years before he passed and obviously never got to see him. To hear these songs played with so much love was a treat of the highest order.

If memory serves me correctly you toured down here with Rory in the early 80’s and played at the Capitol Theatre in Sydney. A gig I will never forget.

    Bit late to the party; didn't know about Band of Friends. Gerry, you've always been a star in star band; you're looking and sounding terrific. Saw Rory several times in the 70s, starting at the Crystal Palace and ending (I think) at the Hammersmith Odeon. Then there was a gap of 13 years before I interviewed him in Tokyo. He had flu and my expectations for the gig were low, but he was as lively and brilliant as ever on stage. I'm sure he never had a bad gig in him. There's an annual Rory Festival in Tokyo each year (COVID permitting); wish you guys could get over here to play.

    Thanks Gerry! I can't properly express the warm happy feeling in my heart after watching this. You sound fantastic and I would love a chance to see this lineup of the band. I last saw the band at the Dakota in Minneapolis in what must have been one of Ted"s last gigs a couple years ago. I loved chatting with you and I really enjoyed reading your book. It really helped me come to grips with my heroes passing at last. Please make the trip across the pond again soon you still have many fans in our Midwest part of the country.
