Eddie & The Hot Rods: Pier Pavilion, Hastings

BARRY MASTERS, Eddie And The Hot Rods' front man, drove his band down to Hastings from London himself – a sweaty, draining, three hour bang. He parked the battered van in the car park, flung open the door and within seconds, chin stuck out and hair streaming behind him, he'd stalked the length of the pier and leapt onto the stage of the Pier Pavilion.
