Tuesday’s Children gigs 1966-1969

Welcome to another posting of a series of gig listings for 1960s bands. None of these lists is exhaustive and my idea is to add to them in the comments section below over time. They are here for future researchers to draw on.  I have also added a few interesting bits of information and will add images in time.

I’d like to encourage band members to get in touch to share memories, or for anyone to send corrections/clarifications to my email: Warchive@aol.com 

Equally important, if you attended any of the gigs below or played in the support band, please do leave your memories below in the comments section for future historians to use. If you know of any missing gigs, please add them too, if possible, with the sources.

  1. I remember Tuesday’s Children at El Grotto and more interestingly at The Greyhound Seven Kings. My close friend Ray House hired the hall and booked them. Nobody turned up, well maybe a dozen. he actually booked three groups on consecutive Saturdays and all were poorly attended. We put out lots of posters but no great interest, he put it down to a bad reputation at the Greyhound. He went on to manage a group called Blue Vein but I lost touch with him after that.

  2. i remember seeing these when they werein malmsbury or mulbough near swindon,i was with a friend called chris evans who used to live in swindon and then moved to aylesbury,i was in a band with chris evans and his friend was in tuesdys children. we saw a band member in tuesdays children i the town hall i think. cant remember the band members name
