Attila first played at The Adelphi in early 1985 (not long after Paul “Jacko” Jackson opened the club in late 1984) and has performed (about) 30 times over four decades. Attila visited Jacko in Dove House more than once in the last weeks of PJ’s life and by request I read some of Attila’s poetry to Paul only a couple of days before he passed.

Their 40 year friendship is something very special and Attila will celebrate Paul’s life by sharing stories, poetry and songs and promoting his 10th book of poems. A call out to all Adelphians. Come and join us for a night at the club celebrating Jacko’s life with his old mate Attila. X

This event supports We Shall Overcome. WSO is a UK-based grassroots movement—operating under the ethos “solidarity, not charity”—that uses music, arts, and community events to support people affected by poverty, homelessness, and austerity.
