🍒 October, 06


1966.
🍒 London at “Aberbach House”; JHE rehearsals (13.00/about 17.30). Noel went to the practice rooms and found out Mitch Mitchell had definitely joined the band.

↪ Chas gave the group 30 watt Burns amps, but they attempt to wreck the gear in order to obtain better amps. They tried throwing them down the stair flights, but they still worked, in the end they had to have them stolen in order for Chas to replace them. This was at the publishing house venue, on the 5th floor.

Noel: “It was in a rehearsal room in the Aberbach Publishing House. And Jimi and Mitch kicked them about. I was horrified because gear was hard to come by. Burns had given the gear to us.”

Mitch: “Some of the rehearsals took place in the offices of a music publisher in Savile Row or Albemarle Street - a real straight music publisher.”
