Brilliant night that, Busheys, it was packed, me and our kid got on the stage and started, "Little Franks disco pants are the best", then the stage invasion began, it was like being in the beer keller with those benches and long tables, Frank was in great form that night, you know he was, he really............................ was. it was a great few days over in IOM, blimey, 94, how time flies

was that the tour for a competition called the steam packet festival chaps? think flitcroft,uwe,walshy,curle beagrie etc were playing?

Thats the one lad, City, Oldham and and IOM 11, and yes, we were runners up, Oldham won !

A weekend of Labatts Blue, City and Frank - with Frank, naturally, being the star turn......

Anyone remember City's pre season tour to IOM in 94' - Douglas, where he played that bar there - and at the end we all invaded the stage and tried to wrench his head off, was a top night and that papermached head is hard as fuck ! Was a proper rowdy, belly full of laughs kind of night.

Thats the thing with Frank - he made us smile - God bless 'im.

RIP

this is where i "acquired"/adopted little frank , who now resides in my conservatory - sad news
