Was in a band when I was about 16 and we were playing in Hanley. I remember going into Clay Records and was 3 or 4 of the scariest blokes sat down staring and me and one of the other band members who came along . I tried to hand this one fella a demo tape and he just said 'F@ck off, you look like Nik Kershaw' 😁. Wasn't the look I was going for but tried to laugh it off and we left. Wasn't Route 66 near to it?

Great piece, just read it and came here to post it. Probably the most important and influential musicians/band ever to come out of the Potteries.

I always wonder how many young gig-goers (or even bands playing at the venue) realise that the graffiti facade on the front of The Sugarmill is a homage to these famous sons of the city?  |

That's briliant, I've never seen that. Veeery long time since I've been to the Sugarmill... |

That mural was only done last summer - it was in the paper at the time where they explained the origin but I suspect the phrase on the wall is lost on many.
