I was in a band called Stone Free, changed to Evil Ways and changed again to Urchin. The original band Stone Free was made up of myself - John Hoye bass, Adrian Smith guitar and vocals and Dave Murray guitar. We used to rehears in my school hall, Cardinal Pole which was on Kenworthy Road E9. Adrian and Dave went on to be in Iron Maiden and still are today. When we were called Evil Ways we had a residency at The Earl Amhurst every Friday night for many, many months, the place became very, very popular. The band then consisted of - John Hoye on Bass, Adrian Smith guitar and vocals, Maurice Coyne guitar, Barry Tyler drums, Dave Hall vocals.
