Skids supported by the Dickies. Seems like only 4 decades ago.

Magazine supported by Prag Vec (yes really! that's what they were called) the week after.

Don't ask me what I was doing 4 weeks ago.

Wasn’t that Adam and the Ants?

Dennis is right the Adam Ant one did get shut down because of a fire to the curtains and the place getting smoked out.

The elephant in the room of course is the Damned at City Hall in Dec 79.

I believe the support group was Then Jericho (great name - no really!) but a coachload or two of scruffy Middlesborough 'punks' started throwing their weight around with Hull's teenage suburban New Wavers.
Word reached Bass House, and back up arrived.

The rest, as they say, is history. Messy messy messy to paraphrase the Damned.

Sure 'Then Jericho' (yeah) supported at some event around then.

You never get these fire extinguisher moments at the Clean Bandits.

I agree
The only thing I hope that’s kept in that whole development is the BHS mural
