The event will be hosted by BBC Scotland broadcaster Nicola Meighan, and on the panel will be David Meldrum Lowe on his book of the same name which focusses on bands and venues from the 50s through to the 80s; Billy McChord, musician and band member of 22 Beaches, on the Stirling punk and post punk scenes; Mairi Ross Bauchop, band member of The Fakes; Les Cook, sometime member of Pop Wallpaper; Ewen Duncan, proprietor of Europa Music on record shops in Stirlingshire; and Ken McCluskey, musician and co-curator of the Harry Papadopoulos collection.
