I presume when they were over, they’d have played a few gigs in London as well as going elsewhere? We’ll have to ask him where it was.
Forrest gate is in the east end so it is possible this was the gig. Mater saw the same show but In Leicester. Neither the stax or Motown tours were sell outs. Strange thinking about it now but some shows only pulled in 100 odd people.
