Cleveland to Heaven and Heaven to Hull

On the 30th of May we celebrated Mick Ronson’s birthday at the Beachland Tavern with a very special brunch menu, fantastic music and a great group of folks. Fans from the UK, Toronto and Colorado were in attendance and the locals enjoyed it too. Hosts Randy, Brenda and Judy supplied the t-shirts and pins while Irena (huge Ronson fan from Russia) created a fab Mick Ronson crossword puzzle that kept the room buzzing with trivia. Between the  prizes and the Pleasure Man (Hey Ma Get Papa) Margaritas every fan left smiling.  The same can be said for the weekend up in Hull that followed on the 5th and 6th of June.  All reports thus far have been good  and as pictures and comments continue to come in we’re archiving them here for future use in the gallery. Stay tuned.
