SUMMONER'S TALES...
"We stuck together and we stuck it out. Going to America was a last resort - just doing some gigs under our own steam which no one had done before. We couldn't get gigs in England. Couldn't play anywhere. We just did it because there was nothing else to do. I was doing anything to make money at the time because I had a wife and kid to feed."
