Whitby and Scarborough
From February 1972 through July 1973 I was stationed at RAF Fylingdales in North Yorkshire while with the U.S.A.F. I spent a lot of time in Whitby and Scarborough and was wondering if in your travels through England you ever visited either of these towns and if so what you thought of them.

Hi Steve,
As far as I know we’ve never been to Scarborough (although don’t quote me on that, we might have passed it on tour) but we did play a festival in Whitby a few years back. It was one of our first gigs after moving here and we thought the town and area to be absolutely gorgeous. We visited the abbey and tried to soak in as much of the atmosphere as we could before finishing the day with a rocking gig. Glad you got to spend some time there!

Hey Mona
Very nice you guys did a gig in Whitby. I personally would love to see you guys play live and if I ever win the lottery I’ll be reaching out to you for when you have some live shows in the U.K. and I will definitely take a flight and go see you then visit the old haunts at Whitby and Scarborough plus I would love to visit Liverpool and see the home of the Fab 4. But anyhow, I’m sure Whitby’s changed quite a bit since I was last there but I would still love going back again. But then I’m sure the Abbey is unchanged. I went there many times but man sometimes that wind coming off the North Sea up there could be downright brutal. Can you tell me, do they still make and serve Double Diamond beer over there. I used to love that as it was so smooth like Guiness. It took me a while to get accustomed to room temperature beer but I really did acquire a taste for it. Thank you so much for your response. I really love what you all do as it brings a great deal of pleasure to me. Keep up the great work and to quote my two favorite Austrian musicians… oh wait, that’s you and Lisa, haha, stay groovy.
