Penny Valentine, Street Life, 29 November 1975

The chalked sign on the blackboard at Manchester University reads: Tonight – Nils Lofgren, and then in brackets Ex-Neil Young & Crazy Horse. The price of admission is 50p. For the same amount next week students can see a wrestling match between Klondyke Jake "24 Stone Man mountain" and Jack Rowlands "16 Stone Adonis".
