Guessing 1983 as that's an enormous Margarita?

That is one of Tony Mottrams. He took a whole bunch on the day, most of which can be seen in the Quotographs book from 95 / 96

Was this maybe taken when Colin Johnson booked Francis and Rick on a string of personal appearances to get them talking again, sort if thing in 84?

I think this picture shows how they felt about the song Marguerita Time as they heard it for the first time

They're in a pub, could it be that pub tour?? I didn't follow the band then, but that is what it looks like to me.

Looks to me like it could've been the day they shot the video for A Mess Of Blues.

If you look over Rossi's left shoulder, it looks like a stage with a drumkit on it and someone in front of it with a couple of lights showing.

So, Watson; you know my methods. What do you think? I'd say going by Francis's hair and the marguerita in Rick's hand, this is mid-80's. 1980's that is. It looks like a cocktail bar somewhere judging by the decor. And also Christmas judging by the tinsel. In my opinion, Holmes, this is December 1983. Bravo, Watson! Your powers of deduction continue to improve every day.

It's sometime around the Mess of Blues video, going by the hair.
One giant ass Margarita... Anyone know the name of the bar? Asking for a friend,obviously
EDIT: Did Rick get his brows done? The thickness of them! Like two snails!
