The Queen's Park bandstand after being moved. Whit weekend 1963 if memory serves.

Hi 2322hoover, welcome to chesterfieldonline  (y)
I did a quick Google for 'Steve White and the Zeros'. Not being old enough to remember them  ;)
Found this great blog that mentions them, http://1959-streetmusic.blogspot.co.uk/
Quite an entertaining read, hate the colour scheme though  >:(

Hello Fly,
                 I'm very grateful for that memory jogging blog; I wrote it. It was quite a while ago and I'd forgotten it completely. That was a nice update from Pete, also, regarding the (much) later epics of the bandstand.
The 'British Racing Green' did come out a lot like 'Yuk Mould Fungus'. Such are the joys of the internet (especially for those of us who aren't much cop with it.)
Many thanks.
