    I recorded the original demo for Past the Point of Rescue in Mick Hanley's house in Phibsoro on a 4 track Tascam cassette machine in the late 80s ! :eek:

    Love little nuggets like that.

    Although my favourite has to be from Jimmy Hickey, about 15 years ago, and I actually heard him saying this to some live sound students:

    "I was doin' backline for the hearts when you were in nappies."

    CLASSIC Jimmy :D

    What age would you have been in the late 80s, Paul? If I had to guess, knowing what you look like now, I would say probably in your early 50s?

    crikey, I'd have put you as late 40s, maybe 50 at a stretch.

    All those early nights and oil of ulay has certainly paid off :D

    Sweet stuff Paul I never knew that you were once a young gosling. My parents adore Mick Hanley. I want to do a cover of it at some point.

    Where were you for the other 10?:D

    Actually I'm not far off that myself. Still have all my hair though, it's in a box under the stairs. Boom boom.

    I often wondered what the age profile of posters on here was.

    Two forty pluses outed so far.

    Fair play Gregg,

    I doubt you're the oldest on here though.

    Rock.

    Hal Ketchum is doing the Red Cow soon. I'd say that would be a shocking gig.
