In the 60s my uncle (Andrew Attwood) played bass guitar in a group called Tony St John and the senators, The other members included Robin Pemble, Max Hoad and Lee Fairbrother. They were based in the Medway towns.
I am hoping some/all of them may still be around and contactable, as Andrew is unwell and would like to reconnect with old friends. Any help with tracing them would be wonderful.

In reply to a post from Jon Attwood, I am Lee Fairbrother who played drums for The Senators with Drew in the early 60s. We rehearsed in his parent's house close to Gillingham Station. Sad to hear Drew is unwell, please pass on my sincere thoughts. Sincerely Lee.
Hi - I'm Tony Parry's (Tony St John's) son Yes he was the lead singer. He would go on to sing in other bands (even winning a televised talent show on TVS!) - but the Rolling Stones support gig in Chatham in 64 was probably the height of his time with the Senators
Yes - that's sounds like Dad! He took me aged 6 - and a lifelong club following was born...through thin and thin! Dad died in 2012 (when Gillingham were, fittingly, top of League 2) of cancer. It's sad to think that was 14 years ago now - time does fly. But he was very proud of that Senators' gig in 63 when they supported the Rolling Stones. I have pictures.
