This turned up on the Southend-on-Sea nostalgia page on Facebook:  Anyone know what the setlist was? Rumour has it that John Peel never actually turned up. |

Any festival with a band named "Highly Strung Vest" in the lineup has got to be worth a punt!...  |

I'd hazard a guess that "I'm Going Home" (ALB) and "Breadfan" (Budgie) were played.
I wonder if any of the other Southend/Canvey Island band members joined in with Mickey Jupp - Kursaals, Feelgoods, Chilli Willi....

That was the Gottle o'geer line-up. Possibly their first gig. I was tempted, but ended up at Charlton for The Who, Sensational Alex Harvey Band, Little Feat, Outlaws, Streetwalkers and Widowmaker instead. Can't say I regret my choice. And I did see FC a week later in London..

Then they were sort of just hanging around. Then they ironed out the problems. Then they (allegedly) came out of the closet and are now a top drawer act. But some people think they're pants. |
