By 1977, The Toby Jug Pub in Tolworth had for many years been a venue for up & coming bands. It was well established as a local pub gig, playing host to the likes of Traffic, Led Zeppelin, Jethro Tull, Ten Years After and King Crimson . It was at this venue on Feb 10th 1972 that David Bowie performed as Ziggy Stardust for the first time in the UK.
Ultravox! played a gig here during their first UK tour, on March 27th 1977.
