Week commencing 31 October 1971 at
Keighley Variety Club Lennie Bennett supported by The Nomads
The Nomads never went out of fashion,
but the band did have it's up's and downs in the 1980's & 90's.
Band members commitments changed in their personal lives, so there
were a number of "last gig" events, this trend has
continued to the present day. They have had so many comebacks one
starts to wonder if they do it just to get attention (only joking
boys).
During the 80's, 90's and early 2000's they had regular
bookings at The Snooty Fox, Bronte Hotel, Three Sisters and the
Green Gables and the occasional social, Gas club or wooden hut
affair. Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays would see the band
playing at least one of these venues. The changing of the music
licensing laws had a detrimental effect on all of Keighley's bands
and pretty soon there was only the Green Gables that was licensed
for bands to play, and with the closing of the Gables came the end
for many local bands.
