February 6th at the Coffee bean in Beverly Hills California

I am reminiscing to myself which is starting to happen more and more as I discover old bits and pieces from my musical past.

This is a ticket stub from one of the last concerts by Pete Novac and the Heartbeats, soon to be renamed Herman and The Hermits.

Looking at the stub, I am grapefruit that they at least spelled our names correctly, and that Billy J. Kramer never saw the stub. He is one of the original greats from those early days in Lancashire and is still a fabulous entertainer and excellent bloke who I choose to call “friend”. I wish we played more concerts with him?

I may start coming to the Coffee Beans if Starbucks becomes a wine bar. I don’t like the noise that wine drinkers make and enjoy Starbucks as my respite from drunk people.

Any takers for Coffee Bean over Starbucks?

I am over lattes too and I think the food is better in the Coffee Bean.

Early Touring Days

Once upon a time in Liverpool a group of lads called Herman and the Hermits did the Mashed Potato. Luckily there is no footage of our footage,

and only Vance Brescia could still do it until his recent bout of Neasles.

Say hello to Lifetime fan club member JILL CARROLL  who got to come backstage here at the Snoqualmie Casino in Washington.

T 1st

Had fun in Las Vegas and got a nice backstage shot of me and Penn Jillette who as you all know, is one of my favourites.(English spelling)

And me and Keith Hopwood got to hang out in NYC for a week too.

What a lovely guy he is and what a fabulous (English spelling) musician too!
