Well it started in 1977 when they met for the first time at Cairngorme Caravan Park near Springs where Henry’s Band, ”Eternal Now” was doing an afternoon show, the drummer had invited Dave along for a jam. Dave plugged into Henry’s amp, not a thing guitarists let other guitarists do usually, but then Henry’s a nice guy :-), and so a friendship started. Between Dave’s work in the Hotel business and Henry’s work as an Engineering rep they would get together in the afternoons and at weekends and play just for the fun of it. After a while they both realised they just wanted to play music and not “Hotel” or“Rep” it. They went for an audition with Maurice Fresco who got them their first pro gig at the “Rebel Inn” in Benoni on 1st of November 1978 (Thanks Maurice). The hotel manager at the time needed a name to advertise, so he christened them "Abbott and Crabb". ......and a Loooonnnng journey started ! http://www.abbottandcrabb.co.za/abbott%20and%20crabb%20site_002.htm Wed, 24 Mar 2010 10:52:15 GMT Dave Abbott http://www.abbottandcrabb.co.za/abbott%20and%20crabb%20site_002.htm#1 on the SA entertainment scene ]]> http://www.abbottandcrabb.co.za/abbott%20and%20crabb%20site_002.htm Wed, 24 Mar 2010 10:52:15 GMT Dave Abbott http://www.abbottandcrabb.co.za/abbott%20and%20crabb%20site_002.htm#2
