Here's another. Heinz Burt Close in Eastleigh. Named after Heinz, the former bass player of The Tornados (famed for their hit Telstar)
Not named after me as such, but I’ve dj’d the silent disco the last 2 years for Bug Beats Events at the Wickham Music Festival! 🤣🤣
There's Charles Watts Way at Hedge end of course
Hi Pete. Did you see my email. Croft No 5 have reformed!! 😊
I saw Ronnie Lane’s Slim Chance in 1976 in the Roundhouse, Chalk Farm. What a great band.
Marylebone, London
As part of the 'other festival' in Pilton you will find a new road Maggies Farm, not a band member but of course from Bobs tune.
OK - I need to get out more! Here’s a little something to fulfil the request!
Ash Smither
Can't remember where this was now but great name 🤭
Of course its Swansea so it may be the Welsh Dylan
Spotted this in Partinico, Sicily.
In his home town of Paisley.
Not a road name, but Billy Bragg Bicycles sign in Gillingham is one I remember from childhood. Obviously not that Billy Bragg!
