Before he came on, A black guy took to the the stage area and did a mike test,people started to clap and he said dont clap me im not Lou Ragland. oops! Alot of people missed his show that night and didnt realise he was even on.Best song for me was the wonderful "SINCE YOU SAID YOU WOULD BE MINE" Fantastic! regards WrightyP. Well if Lou's appearance wasn't advertised, I must have dreamt the ad shown below . . . The deal to have Lou on @ Queens Hall was done some weeks before the show, I should know as I organised & ran that tour (which ran to about 8 shows in all). I have quite a few old photos (prints not digi copies) from that night somewhere around here. Edited April 23, 2017 by Roburt 1
Roburt Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 I think I took these two pictures of Lou performing on his gig at the Queens Hall ... but we did so many shows in a short period & it was almost (exactly) 27 years ago, so I can't be sure. Can anyone confirm that this looks like the downstairs room at Queens Hall !!
