Hi Wah Wah do you remember someone called Mark Lilleker he said he used to play with Black Rose. I think he might have been an early member?

Never heard of him mate but I moved down south in 1986 so maybe he was after that? The guitarists I remember besides me were Kenny, Ian Iredale and Pat (can't remember his surname but was Mick Tuckers cousin I believe?). There was a guy called Mark Sutcliffe from East Anglia who had been in a band called Trespass who joined us for ONE DAY! We picked him up at a gig in Cannock and drove him back to stay in Spud's old room at 295 Norton Road and it was SO bleak, he fucked off back to East Anglia the next day! There was also a very young guy who could play the guitar with his feet and everything but he really looked 10 years younger than everyone else back in 1987 when they played in London. Sure this guy doesn't mean the Lizzy tribute from Boro?

Sounds like Black Rose went through more members than bloody Rainbow :)

I remember the name .... vaguely .... but I just can't place him for sure.

Did he play with Muski at some point? ... or Emerson? ... anyone remember?
