Headsman Reunited

LANCASTER'S only ever psychobilly/garage band will be making a noisy return to The Yorkshire House this Saturday (August 25). Way back in 1984 a group of likely lads, who went by the name of The Headsmen, played their first ever gig at The Yorkie supporting Doctor and the Crippens. The Headsmen - who wore Jon Carter (guitar), Paul Hall (bass), Dave Gray (drums) and, for a short time, Dave Nowson (vocals) - had a dedicated following in the mid-1980s before the band stopped in 1989 and John, Paul and Dave Gray went on to form The Limebirds. All the original band members are now back in the country together for the first time in years and are celebrating with a one-off reunion gig at the place where it all began. Jon Carter said. "It should he a nostalgic night for anyone who was around and the time and we'd like them to come along and see some old faces." The Headsmen gig is free to enter and there'll be a late bar.
