Trak from Rumble Strips
writing for the Friars Aylesbury Website in 2009:
We
(Rumble Strips) supported Racing Cars at the Friars September 3rd 1977,
and they then took us with them on their autumn college tour. We
finished up at the Hammersmith Odeon, which was quite something for a
little four-piece from Norwich. We used to play clubs that were smaller
than the Odeon stage.
RC were
really good to us. We always got a sound-check, Mal used to do the
lights for us and they were all really friendly. When we heard we were
playing the Friars we thought we had made it. All the bands who had
played there before; standing on the same stage as David Bowie.
Incredible.
Some of
us are still making music as The Random Acts of Kindness
All the
Best, and many thanks

Racing Cars had split within a few years,
getting back in the 2000s where they released their most recent album in
2007. Support act Warren Harry died in March 2008.
