| In the days when Mr Joe Lucy used to be the govnr of this pub it was a fantastic place to go if you really liked rock, everyone there was friendly and there was never any trouble at all, it used to play the best rock around and the man who played the music used to play out of a coffin, the staff where really nice especially the best barmaid in the back room who could serve 3 people at once and dish out the right change, and never forgot her regulars, yes it was in the late 80s a long time ago, this pub was my youth, will never forget it. If they knock the place down i want a brick as a souvenir please thanx cook1atschool - 12 Apr 2010 21:21 |
| The Ruskin arms is not closed it is very much alive and rocking every Saturday 9 till 2am playing a mix of old rock and metal with some new bit stuck in all new DJs better sound and lighting a great night out Visit facebook and look for “Ruskin Arms, East Ham, London. Home of metal” for upcoming events and to join the info hotline troll - 9 Jun 2009 09:34 |
| A piece of rock history is dying. Soon to be gone is the legend that was the Ruskin Arms.In Dec 08 the former birthplace of Rock Icons Iron Maiden is being turned into a surgery and flats. Gone will be my refuge and 2nd home during my youth. I dont think it ever recovered since Joe Lucy(RIP) the former landlord died. No more trips down memory lane for me. So to S.A.A.C. The Zoo, The Tilbury Mob, Colin and his radio caroline Rockshow and all the ever friendy genuine people who frequented this shrine in its heyday it would be great to give this old mother of a venue a good send off. Anyone up for getting their head down for one last night? I will be there with snakebite in hand and ears buzzing.Rock may never die but this place will be immortal within me. One last hocus pocus by focus. Dravenheart - 17 Aug 2008 23:17 |
| Shame its closing down in December, this place ahs alot of history. Used to be a major metal/bikers pub, new owners seem to have run it in to the gorund. The bands are fewer and of lowering quality Really sad. prime - 22 Jul 2008 15:12 |
| What can i say? smelly dirty. the streets are full of scum in the area. Bar staff very good. Music very dated. Toilets filth. And not a safe area for girls on their own.Couldnt wait to get home to essex. millie123 - 3 Oct 2007 15:41 |
