Venue Notes |
| |
|
|
| |
The main building in the photo was the Dog and Duck Pub at the time of the Flag disco, the little annex to the left hand side as |
| |
you look at it was The Flag venue where Gary played. This is now a Ladbroke's bookies. I know as A) I drove past it just 2 days |
| |
ago and B) I helped Frank (Frankie) Drake and the late great Peter Gilbert organise the various Numan and Numan related |
| |
bashes there. |
| |
It was connected to the pub in so much as it shared an adjoining wall. I never had any dealings with the pub itself, but assume |
| |
it was the same owner/licencee. The Flag indeed had its own entrance immediately below what you see as the red Ladbrokes |
| |
sign (you didn't enter through the pub. On going through the door the very small stage was to the left and the bar on the far |
| |
side to the right. |
| |
The Flag gave rise to Peter Gilbert & Frank Drake's Flag Promotions which will be familiar to older Numan fans and also |
| |
produced the excellent 'In The City' magazine. |
| |
The stage was a permanent structure, complete with wooden pannelling and sides. The PA system used was Garys old |
| |
equipment which Pete & Frank obtained a year earlier. |
| |
There were 2 rehearsals, 1 the day before and 1 on the day of the gig, both starting at 10am and finishing around 5pm. |
| |
These were in private attended by Gary, the band, Pete and Frank along with the sound engineer Roger Millington. |
| |
Rrussell Bell played guitar for most of the gig with bass on Down In The Park. |
| |
The public house has been known by a few names over the years including The Hop Bines, then the Chequred Flag, |
| |
it was called the Dog and Duck at the time of the gig. It went on to be called Bootsy Brogans, then a restaurant called |
| |
Desi Dons before becoming Tesco Express Supermarket as in the main picture. |
