The Fall, what a band, Mark E Smith, what a ....front, man, still i've had the good luck to have never seen a bad show, i've caught them several times between 1985 and 2010...

It was probably The Fall at the Astoria in '87 although Husker Du at Glasto the same year was pretty awesome. Also PiL touring the Seattle material (also at the Astoria). There, I seem to have thought of three: there are a lot more contenders though, like Agent Orange, who I saw for the first time last year at the Underworld in Camden after being into them for 25 years!
Yeah i caught Roky at Jarvis Cocker's Meltdown - it was unbelievably good. Truth is I don't get to that many gigs coz of KIng Bastard Cash and so I have to pick and choose which means I don't get to see much crap either.
The Only Ones were top notch in a small venue last year, The Linkmen were fucking awesome way back when in a dive in London, just like The Pink Fairies.
The Damned always give value for money and Iggy before he did Insurance ads...
lemmy's a god and motorhead never fail...
Also a lot of bands just don't get the crowd reaction from some, well most, manchester audiences, god knows why, well i've got a theory but i don't want to be shot out on the streets, so i've stopped going to some manchester venues.

I was at a backyard show back in like 2002 when I lived in California, watching RUN-A-MUCK. I got mistaken for someone else, and we got chased out by another drunk punx crew. Along with my girlfriend at the time, my two buddies and their girlfriends as well. Chased out by a mob of 30+ punks. Luckily, a random guy saw our situation, crammed us all into his hatchback civic and sped outta there. Intense stuff! i didn't even get to see the band =/.

What a drag.
RIP Poly, you will be sorely missed.
ah damn, had no idea...RIP Poly....
Ah, no...
Reminds me so much of my teenage years in the late 70's. My life could have been very different - and not in a good way - if it hadn't been for artists like Poly Styrene ... RIP
What a downer, very sad. Such a voice, such a personality, so much expression. RIP Poly
Very sad, I loved X-Ray Spex.
Stink buzz. Rest in Peace Poly.
Aw, damn. That sucks.
Another one of the good guys gone. Poly was a human being. I can pay her no higher compliment. RIP
Possibly one of the most influential women in my life. She'll still have an impact on every teen girl that heres "Oh Bondage" for the first time. <3
R.I.P.
Sad stuff. 53 is awfully young.
BFTG and KBD obviously. I only have a couple of them so far but I love The Big Itch.
Bloodstains Across Spain. Haven't been able to find it for a reasonable price.
What a Way to Die, Garage Punk Unknowns 9, Scum of the Earth 2, Bloodstains Across Sweden, New England Teen Scene, Swing For a Crime, and The Lavender Jungle are some of my all-time favorites.
Favourite chord? G6. Don't know why, I just like the sound of it. I've never used it in a song and probably never will.
A is good...A minor makes it a bit more haunting, though. Bar chords in the shape of E or B are always fun after the 5th or 6th Jack -n- Coke.
