jewls29 Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 I remember the Buccaneer very well! Brilliant for the music and wall to wall totty, but not so good for the warm beer in plastic glasses. It was the place to be seen, even tho it was pitch black inside... Then there was the slow stagger down to the Wimpy Bar on Fargate with the customary traffic cone on the head...Happy memories!:bday: can you remember the golden egg on fargate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewls29 Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 Hey, we must have been in the same places at the same time. I frequented all these pubs. Blue Bell was a bit dodgy. I only used it as a cut through to get to the Dove and Rainbow. I loved the Stone House when the courtyard was a great hangout. I used to stare at the roof and I really think we were outside under the stars. Pig and Whistle was okay but a bit of a meat market. did anyone know that the courtyard in the stonehouse had a sign up saying pig and whistle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saxobine Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 Hi, Mikey, I am from Germany and have spent hours with research about the black swan and the performers they had in the 70ies. Can you support me? I need descriptions and pictures of Glen Turner, who was born in sheffield at 1953. He has been a quite well known guitar player and singer in the late 60ies and early 70ies and certainly still is. He went to London and became a part of the musicians that performed the legendary rock opery Tommy. Glen is now preparing a solo concert with the headline "my life - my music" and I was asked to give him a stage background. Unfortunately the early days in sheffield give me a headache because Glen has no material in his private archieve. If there is any support from this forum I will express many thanks in advance.
