That’s awesome
R.I.P Alan Lancaster. Used to go see The Bombers live. What a band with Tyrone Coates massive voice: “World’s On Fire”
Friends tell me Alan lived in San Souci (so the Kings HEad would have been a convenient gig for him) and either owned or worked at a record store in Bexley. He was also involved in a recording studio in North Sydney. One mate from work confirmed that he simply bumped into Alan at the Penshurst newsagency.
Puts a new meaning on Roll over and lay down and let me in , and so, 'coming in the back door'.
Remember his Norm Provan discounts at Caringbah which later became Clarke Rubber I think. Knew the old man who was very adamant what a gentleman he was. Rest in peace Sticks.
Vale Bert Newton I was never biggest fan of Bert's corny sense of humour. But over the years, with his happy demeanour, loyalty to wife and family , great repour with fellow entertainers,( often taking the straight or lesser roll to let them shine), he became a much beloved icon for me and obviously many others . Just today I heard a quote (and can't for life of me remember who said it) But gist of it was " If I can make some one laugh or smile at least once a day I've done my job on earth. " It was before I heard he died , but just seems to suit and sum up what he did, for Australia.. Will be missed. A Great Man.
