There must be quite a few on here who listened to punk and went to gigs, I know i did.

Bands like the Pistols Clash Stranglers Damned UK Subs SLF Boomtown Rats Sham69 Angelic Upstarts Undertones The Jam.

The clothes and hair Bondage pants studded Biker Jackets belts wristbands bumflaps furry jumpers Docs cherry red or black. Mohicans Spikes Skins etc etc

Bouncers wouldn't let me in even with a ticket! Loved the EC, just down the road and great bands.

UMIST was good as well, saw the Banshees their
