Mark R Posted August 18, 2009 Posted August 18, 2009 With Chuck Jackson's impending appearance at Prestatyn Legends Weekender in October, a question I've often pondered comes forefront in my mind. Can anyone tell me when Chuck Jackson appeared at Hinckley in the 80's? Actual date would be brilliant, but year would be good enough! I was there, I do know that, and can often remember these sort of dates, but not this one! Did I dream this, or does anyone else remember him getting carried away, pulling his leather bomber jacket off, swinging it around his head like a lasso and throwing it..........only problem was, I assume he let go at the wrong time and it flew backwards onto the drummer!!! LOL!! If this isn't true, I've had a strange dream somewhere down the line, but I always recalled this happening! Cheers, Mark R
Mark R Posted August 23, 2009 Author Posted August 23, 2009 Surprised no-one recalls this?? Cheers, Mark R
Platters 81 Posted August 23, 2009 Posted August 23, 2009 that was when CJ told me off for asking if he was going to do Rap.. .(he had recently signed to Sugarhill)....Curtis was June 83....
Mark R Posted August 24, 2009 Author Posted August 24, 2009 Could be 82,mate,around about the same time as Curtis Mayfield or was it 83?? Cheers............deffo not '82 though, as I didn't start on the all nighter scene until Jan '83 (Ric Tic Revue - Hinckley).......thought it was later than that too to be honest but could be wrong on that one! Cheers, Mark R

What a fuckin disaster movie it was too... he forgot all the words to all his tunes & kept singing "Fee, Fi, Fo, Fum" over & over again, bursting into a very tuneful "Hey Mr Chris King could you write the words on a little piece of paper for me". What a fucking disaster that show turned out to be. We all went "Booo", "Get off you c*nt" & laughed like fuck. Rest of the night was pukka. Think he only did the jacket thing to buy some much needed time in his (V.Fucked up, incoherent) state. Loved Hinckley niter. Edited February 7, 2015 by pikeys dog swearing - work filters
