Pilot masks
In Jan. 2018 I was asked (by someone who was an 18 year old punter at Ronnie Wearmouth's Star of the West when the Dead Livers played there in the early '80s) if I remembered an event. He recalled Ronnie producing a number of World War 2 pilot masks and strapping them to the groins of some patrons -- thus allowing the long breathing tube to dangle between their legs. The men so adorned then paraded in front of the band much to the mirth of the rest of the audience. I guess it was an era when things like this were not deemed as offensive as they might be today. I don't recall it but I'm sure it happened.
