Yesterday was big festival in town to celebrate 50 years of Costa Teguise (our home town)

Lots of videos of the cool parachute display landing on the beach.
But this is cool. Spanish flag on the chute and Canarian flag on his leg

Showing my age...I can name the lot. :D

Funny thing is that Debbie Harry was the one that I umm'd and ah'd about...don't think I've ever seen a picture of her quite so unprepared for camera. :D

Now you mention it doesn't really look like her, not that that makes any sense.... I got the four corners, the other two I had to look up.

I was trying to remember who The Slits were support for at Hammy Palais and found some posters for other things we went to. Some good nights :thumbup: Killing Joke+March Violets+Crown of Thorns+Danielle Dax....probably missed the last tube home from that one!

I have a strange idea that The Slits and Tears for Fears were actually both support for some other band. It's an unlikely mixture but the timing would be about right.
