Gary Gillies popped in to chat with Christy on what was a very auspicious day for him - not only his actual birthday, but also the day he fulfilled a 50year dream to be on Manx Radio! Gary is on the lookout for music and movie memorabilia for an upcoming auction - maybe you had a post show drink with the Rolling Stones in the 70s and got them to sign your tshirt, or were in the crowd at the Cream gig in the 60s and caught a plectrum?
