    Got a good photo of Gallagher and Lynott from one of the evening papers.

    Got me wondering ....... did Gallagher and Jimi Hendrix ever perform on the same stage (I know they were at the Isle of Wight on the same day but I don't think they were on stage at the same time)

    I don't think they played together either.
