The Rockin' Johnnies John Dunn and John Langham carried on gigging together for 40 years after they were in the rock band Earthworks at the College in the late 1960s.  They adopted the name The Rockin' Johnnies and performed throughout Norfolk and north Suffolk.  Photos here.  Unfortunately, in July 2009, John D. advised us that John L. had to give up playing for the time being for health reasons and, as a consequence,  The Rockin’ Johnnies are no more.
