The first gig at the Grand Hotel i went to was a party (i think) around christmas "78" i was playing drums for the Spurts & the Vandals, it was a bloody good night . The highlite of the night was when i put my size 9s through the bass drum skin.

Went to see Dirty Water play last night at a gig that originally was supposed to be at The Grand...
And loads of people were telling me that The Grand has shut/is shutting down!
It's really sad/depressing news. That place hasn't seemed to have changed for as long as I can remember and - whenever I've been in there - it's always seemed to be busy/doing allright! I know that a lot of pubs aren't doing so well these days but I would have thought that The Grand would have been one of the last places to close!
I haven't been in there much myself in recent years because I don't live in Leigh-on-Sea any more...
But I've got loads of really fond memories of the old place and the gigs, I went to, there...
It will be missed.
