Who are these faces enjoying a drink and a smoke?

It looks like this was taken in the large room on the first floor of the Bridge, sometimes used as a changing room.

This looks like an after gig party by the bottle of fizz.

Can anyone identify them. This was probably taken by Rappo.

Hi Jeff,i remember we discussed  this photo,when we were sorting the pictures for my book.
Bridge house Canning town,we never new then and still do not know now ,who the people in the picture are ,I remember we had a party upstairs ,after the gig finished i do believe it was a party to do with Chris Thompson This reminded me of a funny incident ,After the gig downstairs had finished and the invited guests were up stairs,The staff,including Sons Terry And Glen were cleaning the pub,when there was a banging on the door,some one trying to get in,Glen Goes to the door and asked who is it ,the answer was its Manfred,Glen said Manfred who ?.he answered how many Manfred Manns you got in there.
Yes i think you are  right Colin Rapp may have took the picture.In the picture i think they are Americains
from a band?. on the back of the picture is written Lorraine,,so is that the name of the girl in it, or is that the name of the person the picture was taken for,and she never collected ,can anybody help Terry M

Hi Terry, is the clue in the title of the pic - Rocco wy 

[TerryMurphy]

i have had some new member asking me what the Bridge was like inside so i had a search of my pics and came up with this one of Jacky Lynton and his band the picture was taken from the dressing room behind the new stage ,and although you can only see the downstairs space,it give you a good idea of how it looked.I guess we would get over 200 customers downstairs to the left is the Bar ,and of course the old stage was up stairs 6 steps ,behind the bar T,M

Hi, do you have any live photos of Lea Hart's band when he backing up that guy who used to play in the Bay City Rollers (forgotten his name)? A mate of mine was doing the PA that night. Also any pics of the Dumb Blondes when they played there? Cheers, Tony.
