Does Anyone Remeber The Pop Gigs At The West Cliffe Hall/Ballroom In The Early 1960's.

A Memory of Ramsgate.

In 1963 I was a vocalist with a Pop Group called Johnny & The Bobcats.

I seem to recall we were booked to raise money for the Ramsgate F.C.

We played in the West Cliffe three times, once on our own, once with Duffy Power on the bill and once with Deke Arlon & The Offbeats.

What a great atmosphere there was with very large crowds. While we enjoyed every minute Health and Safety did not exist in those days.

I remember singing along looking towards the windows and walls and watching the water come through the masonry when the waves hit the building.

If anyone remembers those heady days and knows where I could find old posters or paper clippings of the bookings at the West Cliffe I would be eternally grateful.
