Story


                   Nigel Briggs Joins Barry's Flying Circus

I am just a hardworking grab lorry driver that loves music in general, especially ska music, I love a challenge and being around good people. In these hard times I recognise that many, many more people are suffering from mental health problems and the music industry is being hit especially hard right now!!

Unfortunately (not really) I live next door to Platinum Dave and it took him all of 5 seconds to talk me into doing the wing walk for a couple of reasons… 

The first, being a Mancunian of a similar age to one of the previous wing walkers also from Manchester (Bez) I had to get my name down on the off chance of being in this legends company, clearly not forgetting all the other legends that will be joining us on the day!!

The second being that I cannot miss Platinum Dave being strapped to the wing of a plane - I have to be there to see it…

I know that every single penny raised will really help - this is the least I could do to support Platinum, his music industry friends and Tonic Music for Mental Health.
