The ‘Cosmic Diner’ serves as this website’s themed homages to most things Rock n’ Roll from the 1950’s, 60’s, 70’s and 80’s with the possibility of some aspects of the 90’s thrown in for good measure. This section will also include quick access links to some of the archive material compiled by ourselves and also the material outsourced from other websites. The concept of the ‘Diner’ is purely to ‘feed’ your ‘retro habit’ in an entertainingly nostalgic and musically-themed way and features updates on a weekly basis…
