Long Description
"I remember Peter and Gordon coming to play in Derry," Sean says. "Janet and Thomasina, you're too young to remember. I was quite young myself. I remember being taken downtown in the tansad. There was a lovely couple, the Stewarts, who lived next door to us, and they had no family of their own, and they used to take me out for walks, sort of adopted me. This particular day Peter and Gordon were in town, and they were big stars, and Mr and Mrs Stewart were telling me, 'they're big pop stars! They're on the TV Seannie-boy!' And they were pushing me up Shipquay Street, and there were so many people, the police were called, and they rushed me home, in case it would affect me in any way - you know, the crowds of people. I was only 14 at the time."
