Steph was the studio technician when I was at college in Watford, and Frank played a gig at Watford Colosseum last year in association with the college. I'm claiming it 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tunstall was born in Edinburgh, The Reid twins were born in Leith (part of Edinburgh) but I accept they grew up in Auchtermuchty. I think Steve Mason of the Beta Band is from Edinburgh.

Cherry Tree Posted September 19, 2020 Report Share Posted September 19, 2020 I stand corrected it seems Steve Mason was born in Kirkcaldy, and grew up in St Andrews. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Steve Mason of the Beta Band is from Edinburgh. A quick look at KT Tunstall's Wikipedia reckons she was adopted into a St Andrews family at 18 days old so I call her for Fife over Edinburgh.

It had a sign saying 'Eat like a King' for something like £2. Then underneath it said' Eat like a Queen for £3'. Well, I mean, what's a girl to do!?
