Fair use rationale for Image:Hundredwatts.jpg

Image:Hundredwatts.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Dave Edmunds

A Brewers Droop album has circulated featuring Dave Edmunds, but it isn't clear what his role was with the band. Perhaps someone who knows can put that into the article. Nicmart (talk) 13:45, 11 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Query on dates

The following was entered on the main page - I've moved it from there to here: Hogyn Lleol (talk) 20:29, 18 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

As a personal friend of Malc Barrett ( from 1964 ) , Bob Walker and Steve Darrington ( continuing ) I am certain that the active dates are wrong. My recollection is that the Droop got together earlier ( maybe 1970, but maybe rehearsing rather than performing publicly ) and continued far longer , probably 1975. ( I have a self- made bootleg of their farewell concert , Steve let me put my recorder under his keyboards which blew up in mid- concert ( at their spiritual home - the Nag's Head, High Wycombe ) , however the recording is at my in- laws in Kenya so I cannot verify the date for now. I notified Wikipedia of these errors some years ago yet that correction has disappeared! )

Name

Was their name Brewers Droop or Brewer's Droop ? The article is titled the former but generally uses the latter. -- Beardo (talk) 00:14, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Free Concert in Durham

In summer 1973 we casually passed through a free concert given in Durham across the footpath alongside the wide grassy banks of the River Wear next to the racecourse. At the time there was a guitarist on stage leading proceedings wearing blue jeans and a white T shirt playing a series of shortish blues guitar solos with pauses between. We stopped a while and I was quietly blown away by it all. It started drizzling and we had to get back to college for a meal. From a promotional poster in the college JCR we already knew Brewers Droop (knowing snigger) were part of the free concert. So looking back and putting it all together that could only have been Mark Knopfler. Stuffed Cat (talk) 13:34, 25 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
