UB40 in Brum

On Midlands today, there was a item about UB40 visiting Brum and being honoured with a Music Heritage Award - a plaque outside the Hare and Hounds pub in Kings Heath where they performed their first gig in 1979. One fan had travelled from Wales to be there.... This award apparently is quite rare as only seven other bands have ever received it.

I saw that as well Florence how lovely the pub now has a blue plaque.
 
Great accolade for the pub and the band - loved UB40 and met them a couple of times through a work mate who knew them they are great guys and brilliant musicians.
