Noel: “In Manchester we got stoned in the afternoon and nearly got thrown out of the hotel. In Manchester, a thin three-fan welcoming committee presented me the gift of ‘Please’ written 5,000 times. These days the bands weren’t the only ones sniffing pure methedrine crystal and living off a rainbow of diet pills.”

Chris Liston (fan): “I think one of the best gigs I saw in Manchester was Jimi Hendrix at the Palace. As I remember he stayed on stage longer that the theatre wanted him to, in the end they unplugged him.”
