1960,S Dances

A Memory of Heacham.

I was not the first, but I promoted the dances at Heacham public hall in the 60,s, Cliff Bennet, and the rebel rousers, Bo st runners Moody Blues, Billy Fury and the gamblers, Geno Washington, The Marmalade and so many more plus most of the local groups in the region. they were great times, free buses from Lynn Rudham and Burnham mkt.We had one of the first outside shows on the Heacham club field with the Small faces ,Geno.etc.
Yes we used to get a bit of hassle but at least there were no knifes or drugs in those days.
I still bump into people that used to come.The singing postman appeared as a cabaret spot on one occasion.

i think the rocking berries also came as i attended a lot in the early sixties,
Hi Gerald, yes they were one of John Bennetts favourites he was the promoter before me.
I remember the Small Faces on Bank Holiday weekend. I was only about 7 but managed to get a drumstick who would have been Kenney Jones. Unfortunately I no longer have it
