Brian
I’ve
known
him
years
Brian.
Old
Hippie
geezer
I sorta
knew him
from
like
the
free
festival
scene.
That’s
where
I
picked up
bang
…
where
the
convoy
used
to
come
around
every
year
and
set
up
a
free
festival.
We
sort
of
moved
in
the
same
circles…
you
know.
Same
as
Tommy.
I’d
known
him
for
years
like
long
before
the
parties.
Mutual
friends
and
that
y’know.
our
paths
used
to
cross.
So
what
did
you…
What…
what
was
Brian’s
connection
with
the
Parties?
Brian…
at
first
we
used
to
hire
lights…
often
borrowed
bits
of
equipment
off
him.
He never
really
cared
for
the
parties
as
such.
He
came
to
a
couple
Brian…
but
yeah
mad guy
mad!
Remember
him
with
affection
Brian.
Yeah
he was
always
very
helpful.
But
yeah,
I
thought…
I left
the
radio
station
in
his
custody.
Basically,
him
and
Naseem
ran
the
radio
station
when
I
left
Blackburn
and
erm…
until
you
got…
until
the
DTR
took
it
off
them.
Yeah.
Yeah
what
can
I say
about
Brian.
I
don’t
know.
He
was
just
a
handy
guy.
You
know,
he’d
always
help
you
out.
He
had
that
spirit
about
him…
the
free
festival
spirit.
The
free
party
spirit.
So
he
knew
where
we….
what
we
were
about.
Y’know.
He
was
always
about…
He
was
always
there
to
help
if
you
needed
him,
you
needed
him…
I remember
I
blew
up the
radio
station
on..
one
afternoon.
I’d
connected
it
to
the
wrong
power
supply
by
mistake
and
blew
it
up
and
it
was
late
on
a
Saturday
afternoon
and
I
took
it
to
him
and
he
had
it
fixed.
Y’kniw
he
went
and
took
it
to
this
place
and
he
had
it
fixed
for…
within
two
hours.
It
was
repaired
and
ready
to
go
again.
So
yeah…
he
was
a
good
bloke
to
know
Brian,
you
know,
if
you
needed
something.
So…
so
tell
me the
story
about
Ewood
Mill.
Of
course
he
lived
adjacent
to
Ewood
Mill
so
you
could
always
stash
equipment
in
his
back
yard
which
was
just
over
the
wall
from
Ewood
Mill.
Yeah.
Yeah,
which
is
always
handy
At Chris…
Yeah…
We
did
one
do
was
it…
was
it
Christmas?
And
I
think
we
did
everything…
got
it
all
out
his garden…
the
back
across
the
back…
alley
from
the
side
of
Ewood
Mill.
You
were
the
one
only
one
with
the
strength
to
climb
the
wall
at
the
time
I
remember
it,
But
I
could
remember
you
being
the
only
one
who
climbed
the
wall.
Yeah.
everything
got….
passed
everything
over
the
wall.
And
yeah…
yeah.
Yeah.
Well
one
thing
got…
one
amplifier
got
hidden
under
a…
under
a
telephone
box
lid
and
we
found
it
three
months
later.
So
yeah…
Yeah
things
like
that
tend
to
happen.
Pieces
of
equipment
tend to
disappear.
It
was
like…
Oh there
it
is!
three
months
later.
Or
someone would
come forward
and
said…
yeah
I’ve
got
this.
You
gave
it me
to
look
after.
I
heard
a
tale
of
some
lads
who…
when
you
started
making
the
disposable
PA
cabinets…
they’d
took
one
of
the
bass
bins
home
from
Unit 7
Unit 7
and
used
it
as
a
coffee
table
and
twenty
years
later…
they
still
had
it
as
a
coffee
table.
It
was
like
a
prized
possession.
Y’know.
They
appear
online
every
now
and
again
still.
Still
got
one
of
the
bass
bins
from
Unit 7
Unit 7
I
use
it
as
my
coffee
table.
Yeah,
twenty
years
later
or
whatever.
