The bassist, Chas Chandler, set up Newcastle Arena, and was Jimmi Hendrix’s manager in his early days - bringing him to Newcastle and coining ‘the Jimmi Hendrix Experience’.

Keegans Export Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 I think the Animals used to practice in a garage a stones throw away from the house Steve Bruce grew up in. They weren't The Animals at that point, they got that name a little while after because of the way they used to carry on Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was accused of inappropriate sexual activity with minors a few months ago. Bit of #metoo malarkey apparently. He vigorously denied it and it's all gone hush. Hope it's bollox, personally.

Heyzeus scrogg Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 Oh my giddy aunt I forgot about "Anne Gillies" ( Brandling village ) she loved Byker Stanley and had a season ticket at Newcastle east end, but the mackems were top dogs back then so she moved to the wild west and her son Bobby formed the wild west gremlins back in the day.
