Our guest tickets to the official launch of Skullduggery

Next - after the end of the Ace Cafe gig I swapped sticks with Frank and I've now got his sticks on the wall in my Diner at home ( Dunno what Frank did with mine )

The gig that never was we got the first four tickets ( numbered 001 ~ 004 ) to be issued for the Melksham gig which was cancelled due to Mick's heart attack.

From Melody Maker - 10 September 1977  Dave recently bought a back issue and lo and behold there was this advert of "forthcoming" dates.  We wonder how many the guys can remember !!   There's certainly some unusual venues - my favourite for sheer novelty value has to be Jenkinsons Bar.  Did you spot the incorrect song title ?
