But we didn't care. We were on the road. Robert and Grenville gave us
|
some money to buy a second-hand door mobil, a little van. And we
|
put our little bits of equipment in the back and started driving around
|
the north circular. And then Robert got us some gigs in the north.
|
We drove up to Manchester, Birmingham, all over the country at tiny
|
little clubs. Our records hadn't been hits, but we were enjoying the
|
groovy scene, man. And it was on these tours that we picked up lots
|
of fans, lots of young fans. And it was Through our appearance on
|
Ready Steady Go, with one of our failed singles, that they started to
|
recognize us. And that's when we first encountered the phenomenon
|
known as groupies.
