Chevy rock again for charity

The one-off reunion gig was held at the Royal Spa Centre, where the group used to play when they started out.

The group split up in 1982 and since then have enjoyed a cult following around the world and their CDs are still selling.

They were well known on the local music scene and played at the General Wolfe in Coventry, a pub at which many famous names cut their performing teeth.

The idea for the reunion gig came about because fans kept asking them when they were going to get back together, said bassist Bob Poole.

But as yet there is no talk of a long-term reunion, although Bob said he was not ruling out more gigs in the future.

HANDOVER OF CHEQUE TO MACMILLAN CANCER SUPPORT

Members of Chevy and Jay Kay Pees and the concert organiser, met with Karen Shortt of Macmillan Cancer Support on Thursday to hand over a cheque for £2,590.46 – the profit from the Chevy 30 yr reunion gig at the Spa Centre in September. Chevy enjoyed the reunion so much that they are hoping to put on another gig soon – watch press for details.

Jamie,

Following my “Chevy Thank You letter” which you kindly printed last Friday – I now enclose a short “blurb”, together with a photo of the cheque handover to Macmillan Cancer Care outside the Spa Centre last week. £2,590.46 has gone to Macmillan.

I have included the names of the people present in the blurb but leave it to you how you use it. If the picture is cropped would you make sure that Andy Lock gets credit for his photo.

In the picture, from left to right

Bob Poole, Keith Hancock, Martin Cure, Steve Walwyn, Sheila Gent, Karen Shortt, John Storer and Ted Duggan.
