Hi all, way back in 1976 I played guitar in a band called 'Tush', previously known as 'Satisfaction', we strutted our stuff down at the Bridgehouse on the odd occasion. Our manager was an ex-boxer named Vic Andretti. Our main stomping ground used to be the Rochester Castle in Stoke Newington and also the Spreadeagle in Shoreditch. Anyone remember the band?
Cheers,
Tony.
P.S. A later line-up of the band included one Phil Collen, ex-Lucy, ex-Dumb Blondes, ex-Girl and now of Def Leppard.

Hi Jeff,
Yep, that's Robert (Bob) White. He now lives in New Zealand but gave up playing in the late 70's, which is a shame because he was not only a good bloke but a good drummer too.
Cheers,
Tony.
P.S. I've also sent some b/w pics taken by a mate of mine from one of our Bridgehouse gigs via your email address.

Hi Lira, probably around 3 years in total. Got to close to moving up the ladder but not close enough. C'est la vie!

Hi Terry, the only Shoreditch gig I did with Tush was at Vic's old pub the Spreadeagle. We used to play there every Monday, although it was more of a live rehearsal than a gig. The place was frequented some very odd types, all apparent mates of Vic and probably used to helping the police with their enquiries from time to time ;-) Cheers, Tony.
