'In 1954 we started out at three nights a week; by the end of the year we were working six different clubs a week to an average of two to three hundred people a night. By 1956 it was in full swing; we played Newcastle City Hall a 3,000 seater, five separate times, and they were all full in advance.'
(Chris Barber)
