[Music] Best Punk Rock Song ?

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Were you living in Faversham in the punk years? If so, you'd have prob have been to see The Ripsnorters. Or Nick Hughes' band Cenetrox in Sittingbourne. Or maybe even ventured into the big bad Medway Towns and seen the likes of me...

No - flitting between Fulham and Brighton. My son, ironically, has played the Medway towns a fair bit....I'll see if he has heard of the bands you mention....

Ironically, regarding your NSC name, one of the Brighton bands I saw the most, especially in the Alhambra, was the Piranhas

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Yep, the memo obviously didn't reach NYC or Brisbane. I also saw that tour - Cambridge Corn Exchange.

I know. It was embarrassing.

You and/or your son might enjoy this fairly recent book, it's a really good read

Nope, tho we supported his band The Pop Rivets many a time. Hard trick to pull off, but we actually made him look good

 

[Deano's Right Foot]

Saw them at the Roundhouse supporting the Ramones. Brilliant....but...long hair

With Talking Heads squidged in the middle if it's the same show I went to.

Saints, then Talking Heads, then The Ramones - probably my best ever gig.

I've only re-heard of him because he seems to be 'helping' young bands. He had a thing with Tracy Emin

What were you called .... or would you rather forget?

Yes. I saw the talking heads again in Vancouver around 85 when they were massive

Sat next to him on the train a couple of years ago. Tremendous facial hair and clobber.
