1963 – The Detours play the CAV Sports Ground in Northolt. This was the second time they’d play here. I’ve yet to find any type of ad or memorabilia from these shows, and have not postively established where this was. Some indications are that it was located where the RAF airfield is now located.
Anyone with ANY information about these shows or this “venue”??
