Just come across your blog on a search for the Van Wrekin weekend in 87 so very strange in some ways. My husband Martin was there and takes to Van and the ticket winners from Belfast. He wrote an interesting piece about the experience. Saw Jimmy at the Feish together with an amazing line up. Such good memories
Thanks for your comment Mary. I'd like to read your husband Martin's piece about Van in 87 if you have a link to it. Also, I was there at Finsbury Park when Jimmy played on the same bill as Van. I think it was 2011. It is always nice to get some feedback. Cheers.
