My first memory of the Winter Gardens, is on my 9th birthday complete with lovely floral homemade long dress and er...sort of beehive hairdo...
Yeuckkk!
I have been to a lot of events there, including doing a couple of support gigs which were a real high for me. I hope the festival goes ahead, somewhere, even if not there, but it is a real shame if nothing can save the Winter Gardens. Is a little piece of history that I, for one, will be sad to see disappear, to the bulldozers. :-(
