My Story

Alan Noone, former drum player in The Riot Gang, is celebrating his 75th birthday by challenging himself to a 75-hole golf challenge at High Legh Golf Club.

With a strong passion for music and playing as a drummer in The Riot Gang, Alan has toured with the Beatles and played his music all around Europe. He also features on the front cover of Some Other Guys: An Anthology of 'Some Other Groups' That Helped Create the 1960's 'Mersey Sound'.

Alan will tee-off at 5am on Friday 9th July, aiming to finish at 9pm on the same day. He will play four, full rounds of golf and add the extra three holes to total 75 – collectively walking for 20 miles around the course. All funds raised will be donated to High Legh Golf Club’s charity of the year, WeMindTheGap.

“I’m doing this for rock and roll and for High Legh Golf Club’s charity of the year. This is for a very worthy cause and will allow the charity to continue to transform young people’s futures.” – Alan Noone.
