Hi, I played my 1st Howff gig around 1975 with a band called Switchback.I was on 2nd guitar,with Derek Forbes on lead,Brian McLintock on bass and Hughie Armstrong on drums.Later I formed the Boston Red Sox with Nicky McEwen(Frenzy).We played a lot in the Maggie.Derek went on to Simple Minds. The Howff was my favourite haunt and I got to know a lot of the staff and a lot of the bands became personal friends. John Corson.
