Where did LZ appear?
I am a little confused as to where they did actually perform their first gig as LZ. Was it in Battersea or Gulidford? I started at the university in 1969 and still travelled to Battersea once a week as the campus in Guildford was still a building site (I have some photos of it). Do you have any photos of this historic event?
