I saw the Cramps in Hammersmith in 84 (or maybe 85?)
, must have been a different night, no nakedness.
Someone was spitting at him and Lux ordered the crowd to get him , we didn't. Was great fun.
Saw the again in San Francisco 1990 Cramps were the support band for Red Hot Chilli peppers , they were very half hearted that night. Though sold a good t shirt , a cold chilli theme.��
Lux was wearing high heels by then , he'd really lost the plot..
The meteor were another favourite

Pretty sure they played two nights in '84. Would have been May sometime, as it was in the middle of my final exams. :DQuote:

Tin Tin (STEPHEN DUFFY) - Kiss Me 1982
Not bad when it gets going, different from the charts version
^ some of the background music from them and other new wave ...its got shades of early mixed stuff in DJ that came later, can see where it came from.
Saw them Christmas Eve 1977, on that banned at any large venue tour.Quote:

No support band, but a reggae dj playing as loud as it possibly could get.
I thought fuck me, the Pistols are gonna be a bit loud.
Atmosphere was electric.
Pistols came on, same volume as the reggae dj, bit it was LOUD, and to this day, one of the greatest gigs i've ever been to, and i've seen a few...
Very fortunate and blessed to have seen them.
Wonderful in their prime.
Pissed gibberish. :DQuote:

Above two posts by EB, great old stuff, dancers are an added bonus, thanx.
The next (Christmas) day they played Ivanhoe's in Huddersfield (my home town) as a benefit gig for kids of Firemen (who were on strike at the time). A few kids from our school got to go to this party / concert, and said the 'Pistols were brilliant:Quote:

Wish I'd been there.
Their singles (and one album) still hold up today. Very rare that a band get it so right first time; the clothes, attitude, songs, lyrics and artwork. (Those threatening cut-out ransom note logos).
They changed everything.
Unfortunately didn't change much, not for long anyway.
For a few years people thought- I can be creative too , and think outside the box-
but BBC and society in general are back to being as snotty and dull as ever ( this time political correct chains) and creativity is at an all time low, in fact pre punk was freer than today's morass.
Paul McCartney was number one at the time 1977
Not a great song, but a nice look back at pre invasion, pre "enrichment" Britain.
20 feet from a bonfire �� Love it , these days there'd be a 100 yards exclusion zone around it policed by yellow vested council workers..

Paul McCartney and wings: Mull of kintyre

Henley?
^That song was #1 for about 5 months, iirc. :confused: Hopefully, the Mull is now used for nuclear bomb or Anthrax testing.
Absolute dirge, but it does have one thing that makes blue like it.Quote:
