And a free envelope of blancmange through the post if anyone can tell me which pub this was filmed in. No cheating now:

david t, i take back what i said in the other thread about you and unlistenable shite; you mentioned rites of spring!
minor threat- my phone currently rings with the subtle (but VERY relevant lyrically to me) “Out of Step”…

Don’t Dictate – Penetration

and TBH Anarchy in the UK still resonates despite the butter adverts

I miss those days, waiting for Thursday when Sounds came out and the running to Discount Records to buy singles, and then albums when I started work, happy days indeed

Oh God, youtube has EVERYTHING;

YEP!

Right tent, wrong desert Steve 🙂

It’s somewhere in Manchester, close to a world famous bike race that has just announced it’s forthcoming 2012 incarnation.

Danille dax still gets played a lot as well as do the Lemon kittens

F*cked Up

Ah man… I caught them at Reading, was left with a reasonably strong belief that Father Damian is the best frontman that’s ever lived (certainly I hope never to hug a bigger sweatier man), and a better understanding of exactly how far I can fly when a pit suddenly collapses right in front of me, but with no recollection whatsoever of any of the music after the opening bars of Queen of Hearts. So it was probably great

Penetration – I bought ‘Moving Targets’ recently which now includes ‘Don’t Dictate’ as an add on and I have to say I was slightly disappointed. Saw them live at the time. Was in love with Pauline but not anymore!

metalheart, search ‘no authority but yourself’ start at part1 and work thru them, it’s interesting stuff I think, the history and Dial House. I think it was filmed around the time Steve wanted to do a Crass revival and it includes that bit I think, Penny didn’t want it to happen, but was reminded that he’d let someone he didn’t even know perform their material (Jeffrey Lewis i presumed), so he could hardly refuse Steve. there’s lots of other stuff aswell.

Woodthorpe innit

was it the Royal Oak in Wuthenshawe ?

I’m gonna have to go to bed now as well, up at 5 :-0

nice thread guys 😉

Yep, it’s the Woodthorpe in Prestwich.

Give that man an exploding ceegar…… 😀

Tazzy – Swans, good call. I loved that time is money thing a lot.

B.A. cheers, I’ll give it a look.

I went on tour with Blyth Power in the 80’s and introduced Joseph Porter to trouser dropped trainspotting.

ah right, their home town, I stayed well away from there, had a GF who was a nurse at the nuthouse, she wasn’t far from being a patient :-0

I’m sure the fall filmed something at the wellgreen, mind my memory is hazy these days, Si Wolstencroft’s family were from around there

my former band from when i still lived in the north east used to rehearse in polestar studios, owned by pauline and graham from penetration. 2 of the nicest, kindest most generous people i will ever meet.

anyway, i was more into the US stuff (and more hardcore than punk rock tbh), with this being probably my favourite song from any 80s band:

Scared to Dance and The Absolute Game by The Skids.
NMA were almost Goff rather than Goth but mostly Crusty.
I was always amazed at the “Kitbag Krew who went everywhere with those army duffel bags. Some of the South London ones always carted these big bags around even at London gigs.
Moving 10 years on from Punk still listen to Red Lorry Yellow Lorry, Fields of the Nephilim, Play Dead and The Sound.

What is exactly is ‘trouser dropped trainspotting’? Sounds interesting..

You’ve gotta take the rough with the smooth. Perhaps the unlistenable shite makes Battles Rites of Spring sound even better.

Ah man… I caught them at Reading, was left with a reasonably strong belief that Father Damian is the best frontman that’s ever lived (certainly I hope never to hug a bigger sweatier man)

Haha, I saw them at Rebellion Festival last year, he seemed to spend most of the set wandering about in the crowd. I wanted to hug him, but I had my best band T-Shirt on!

Joseph Porter was/is well into trainspotting, we all took the piss out of him for the lack of “danger/suspense/excitement” and suggested that a bit of nakedness would spice it up. So he clocked the 08.31 the next day with his trousers round his ankles and admitted that it added a certain je ne sais quoi to an otherwise dull pastime.

Wow.
I still remember loads of us sending off our money for the ‘Little Touch of Harry’ tape, memorising the booklet and listening to it regularly for years.

It’s a bit knackered now, half the speed and full of drop outs. 🙂
Still got the booklet if anyone wants a copy – email in profile.
Sadly the sticker died years ago with an old guitar.

Couldn’t believe it when I found it on youtube and haven’t stopped listening to it again since.
It’s probably my favourite album.

The end of ‘Probably won’t be easy’ still makes the hair stand up on the back of my neck, 20 odd years later.

Burundi Drumming! That’s what it’s called. I recall the first drummer in Death Cult was a Burundi Drummer and got sacked for that reason, within a few months (I’d forgotten what the style was called). I Presume Ian Astbury had already decided he wanted to become an American stadium rock band, even at that early stage and there was no room for Burundi drumming.
I think this is good, Tazzy won’t, because he was only into EARLY Adam Ant. 😉

x-mal, specimen and march violets still get regular air time as well. I really need to get into some new fangled binkety blankety poppy hippy hoppy stuff to be in wiv da kids 😕

Lately i have been trying to buy all of The Fall albums, they have made s***loads of them. Got about 18 now. Still all great

ace!

Tazzy, seeing as you have some knowledge of drumming, was Southern Death Cults Aki Nawaz a Burundi Drummer? Or was that just bonkers drumming with lots of tomtoms, percussion and stuff?

Anything by Public Image Ltd, so much so my eldest was named Lydon.
X-ray spex (being played in the van continuously at the moment).
Going to see Anti nowhere league soon.
Buzzcocks.
Sham 69.
SLF.
Angelic Upstarts.
Sex Pistols.

DezB – I used to have the Scraping Foetus albums. Been a while since i heard Clint though.
I loved Mutiny in Heaven. And the first Nick The Stripper 12″ b-side. Cant for the life of me remember what it was called… Kathy’s Kisses! I also loved the first Nick Cave album From Her to Eternity.
