Superb review young man, I almost felt that I was there.....oh wait I was!
Every Stranglers fan needed to share this exceptional evening!
SO were on fire....you could close your eyes and be transported back to '76...ah the nostalgia.

Bloody magnificent fund-raising for charity as well, I kept seeing amazing stuff come up for auction on Facebook for this event. Where did that Stranglers/JJ jacket come from, it looked superb to say it wasn't black? 8)
Think I'll go for a stroll in the trees.

Steve Hillier and co. certainly put a lot of effort into the fundraising and the inblacks dug deep! The Jacket was the creation of Simon Pay I was chatting to him at the event and he told me he used some kind of sublimation process, I think the Red goes with the NMH subject matter too 8)
Thank you very much

A real classy work of art that. How much did it raise do you know, Elvis?

Classy indeed Bob! Not sure exact figure but I think Steve mentioned that the raffle raised £850 which is combined for the Jacket and the Guitar...
Thank you very much

The jacket looked great. Almost as good as the official Stranglers merchandise of late.
