| Comments: | Dear Bruce,
Lovely to see you all at the Arena, M/cr, Sunday, 18 Oct 2009, and looking so well. It was a marvellous evening and the years just rolled back. I shall treasure the memory forever. Having listened to an interview you gave in May 2009, I was not one of the ladies who went to see Cliff, I went to see the Shadows, my favourite Group. Like many, I'm gutted that we may not see you together again. However, I do hope that we may see you sometime in the future, perhaps with your own Group. By the way, that piercing white light that the backroom boys kept trained on us was blinding! We were sitting to the right of you up in the Gods and goodness knows why they trained a light on us. It was you we wished to see. Take care Kindest Regards |

With all the bad news about credit squeeze etc, those clips of Summer Holiday really cheered me up. Recovering from a cracked rib, it hurts to laugh, but oh boy did I laugh at you lot skipping, YES SKIPPING, around the bus in the studio!!! You said you were only 22 then, but wonder if you felt a fool....skipping.....I'm still smiling now!
I wonder if anyone remembers years ago you and Hank at the Palladium, that was smashing, think you played the bongos too, long may it continue. |

| Comments: | This Bruce Welch tribute website is Wonderful!
Just listen close to Bruce sing and play, he is Super talented and can dance to! Bruce Welch brightens the room and along with Hank Marvin as front men, they are one in the same. Wonderful rhythm guitar and Fabulous lead guitar with a Great band that's still going. I love Bruce Welch's singing, listen to it all day. Trying to get to the U.K. sept-oct 2009 for Bruce's! 50th anniversary tour w/C.R. Trivia: I remember hearing the Shadows in the U.S. in 1963 in the days of AM radio, I'd say they led the British Invasion? Thanyou, Boone |

| Comments: | HELLO RUNE - Who was it who used to call you Ruin when we were in the now defunct chatroom? In those days I was Quatermass.
I think your tribute to Bruce is superb and much deserved. More than often the focus in a band is the vocalist and/or guitarist. Rhythm guitarists, bassists and drummers can have their contributions overlooked. For me it was gestalt with The Shadows - the whole is greater than the sum of the parts. The sound they collectively produced was awesome and this was down to Bruce as much as any of the other contributors. Two examples of Bruce's rhythm guitar playing that I believe to be amongst the best you are ever likely to hear are The Savage and Quatermasster's Stores. On the latter his guitar drives the whole thing relentlessly and is extremely powerful and in your face. Brilliant. As a matter of interest Rune which guitar did Bruce use for Quatermasster's Stores? |

This is fantastic. Finally a place for Brucie. Bruce i love ya, always did. Your contribution to The Shads and Cliff is beyond compare, as well as your influence on the Brit scene in general. Words can't always cover it can they. But I AM a loyal fan and always will be. Thanks also for the shadowmania gigs, a lot of hard work I know but vital to keeping the name and music alive,as well as giving something back. I myself have never been to one of them but I am pleased to see its all working out. My love of course to Hank to, even though I have found him difficult to follow in recent years, he's still a star to me, and Brian of course. One thing I would like to say though. Outside of you dear friend, and speaking as a former Bassist myself, my biggest Shads hero was always John Rostill. Speaking for myself as well as others of John's fans, I think its's perhaps time for something for him. Not only a gifted somg write but a Bassist ahead of his time, and probably the best ever, alongside John Entwhistle. just a thought old buddy. OK I'm signing off now, just wanted to say hi and good luck darling. I'll bookmark this site and maybe write back when I can, I'm normally around. One more thing though, I'm now based in Canada, and I gotta tell you, you guys really missed out here, they would've taken you all those years ago - especially the Marvin Welch and Farrar stuff. Take Cae for now. Your Friend and Fan, Princess XXX |

| Comments: | It was a great honour to have Bruce come and watch us ("The Poodles" from Oz, Tony Kiek & George Lewis) play at the Surrey Shadows Club on Feb 22nd. 2008. Thanks for the drinks Bruce, and the sparkling conversation. George is going to seek out that shed in Wagga Wagga (Australia) and blow the damned thing up. Looking forward to seeing you again at Shadowmania 2008 - I'll be playing with Barry Woollett as the duo "Stack It" this time. All the best mate. Seeya. |

| Comments: | Hi Bruce
WOW what an honour to send a message to the great man himself. I Know lots of people who say (The Shadows Oh yes Hank Marvin) I say and always have The Shadows without bruce would be like a cup of coffee without the coffee. Sadly I never saw The Shadows live or met any of you but I have always been a devout fan since 1960 when I was 15. I have over 20 LPs and lots of singles videos and cds which I play almost continuous. T hanks for many years of wonderful music. Please give my regards to Hank & Brian Terry Mitchell |

Under a specially arranged amnesty with The Shadows and their management i am pleased to announce the following:- Could the Shadows-Euro-fans who nicked all their gear from their touring van kindly return it to messrs Hank Marvin, Bruce Welch and John Farrar - no questions asked but a nice cheque in the box marked "Police widows and orphans fund" will be gratefully received! That's yer lot now move along then.! |

BUT...surely there must be more photos of MW&F and M&F taken by keen Shads fans during 1970-73 (Shads-'hippie') era.? |
