[shrkb1te]

saw the subs in 1978 at the lyceum - lay on the stage underneath nicky garret pissed up on cider - brilliant band - still going - saw them about 5 years ago at the underworld in camden - harper left halfway thru to pick up his pension - arf arf - proper punk

[wrekindrivedan]

saw the subs in june this year charlie haper is the man mingling with everyone chattin with everyone proper down to earth geezer if you dont like charlie harper then basically your a cunt

[MrDavidpatmore]

i wasnt at the gig but i recognised a couple of the blokes who we always used to see at the subs gigs i loved to see them live at small venues because im an eletist fucker!!

[stepneymilkmankevin]

I thought that this was the London Lycium gig, 15th July 79. (You got a free 12" single recorded there with the 'Crash Course' album.) If it was that gig, I am in the moshpit somewhere!!

[andreaprodan]

Like a DAMNED tune... in other words... pretty damned good.

[DAREALAndyRampage]

"PUNKX Can't 'DO SOMETHING' wiff IT!!"

[Cuki81]

Vanquisher, sos realmente un pelotudo, esto es espectacular, si ese es tu concepto de la música sos realmente un imbécil.

Aguante U.K. Subs !!

[phnuff]

The best band at Rebellion 2010

[neverbeen2graceland]

I HOPE MR VANQUISHER111 GETS KICKED IN THE NUTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[brandoncipelle]

i dont cae about video qaulity you either like it or well you don't. Plus what is punk anyways. It could be me making music with a hammer as far im concerned.

[markzilla6969]

[janne8biafra]

[TheLurksSuck]

Man... my generation will never be able to expirience musical greatness now that CBGB OMFUG is gone...

[latawie]

great post...wish someone would put all the songs from the lp Another Kind of Blue on youtube...especially "All I Wanna Know"... Thanx for the upload.

[giutar24]

@edhallick. wow, you went to CBGB. that's the biggest punk club on the east, and west coast. what was it like.?

[scotsmaninusa]

@giutar24 played there many a time,small rectangular sweaty shithole just like the wardour st Marquee in London,but that's what made it great.I remember the whole right side of the venue was a bar and the stage size was just the right size.great memories

[deapwavelio]

@giutar24 I would like to go to the batcave, that´s another legendary place, but is mostly darkpunk. but is great, look for it here on youtube.

[sppots]

saw them in cardiff top rank (who remembers the top rank) maybe 1982-3 happy days. The glass ashtray some cunt skipped across the heads of the punks pogoing at the front hurt like fuck. happy days

[butrocker]

[JimmyJillikers]

They just knocked the Pistols out of the BBC6Music Punk World Cup! Finals between Stiff Little fingers and UK subs tomorrow!

[bungy62]

Subs are World Cup Winners...... Seeing them in Leamington on 19th April, an aging punk reliving my youth again. So many bands doing the circuits, brill..

[bizkitfren]

FUCK YEAHHH the uk subs fucking RULE

[mrblifil]

Them at their height. Lucky enough to have seen them a few times during this stage of their career. Thanks for the reminder of how unique they were.

[zdbelafuza]

[azalea66]

Charlie Harper

[klonacarla]

punk punks not death mai

[BWM206]

I love you British guys with your "This ain't punk, that's punk, that ain't, this is" - man, it's like the 80's all over again. I thought Tim Yohannon of MaxRnR put all that to bed with his well-intentioned but ill-conceived fanaticism. Such an American habit and I thought you hated us! Tell you what: Anything that gets 'high' society's panties in a twist, we'll call that punk, eh? And it's gotta be under 3:00 minutes. Love you guys!  Hugs from the USA!

[SquidLickShaun]

na i agree with you i enjoy lots of shit english or amaerican punk i dont care what came 1st or what! and halfe the things peopel call posing i dont agree with its just modern punk e.g greenday i dont liek all the old scholl is the way forward

[Branflakes19]

uk subs were before sex pistols i think charlie is older than charlie

[SquidLickShaun]

sex pistols arent punk ? so why are they known as the most influental punk band and they don deny that ?

[TheDeafblind]

This is a real punk as Sex Pistols

[JohnnyFuzz13]

not.

sex psitols aint punk son

[TheDeafblind]

wrong. there is no uk subs without sex pistols

[JohnnyFuzz13]

nooo

they scpacifically said they werent punks

theyre anarchist... they had a bad fall down too..

uk subs are still doing gigs.. still alive B-)

[GuttersnipeUK]

good job, check our bands version  out! cheers

[smt25364]

I will never forget sitting outside the front of the Lyceum with all the Punks/Skinheads et all...and the SPG Police in their Riot Vans watching over us...what a buzz! And Charlie Harper if you ever read this, did you ever find your contact lense...and was it true that Caroline Hyatt was the girl you sang about on Stranglehold! Remember Sue Morgan, Fergus, The Tooley Brothers and the Medway Crew!?

[smt25364]

I saw this band when I was just 15 in 1979 at the Lyceum Theatre in London...I think the video footage is off that gig, though, its hard to tell...or it could be the Music Machine in Camden?

[copmon]

Awesome,my band just played with them last night.

[karahamilton]

my friend is playing with them soon :D

[127stv]

The exploited the uk subs and dr. know . That was my first show 1984 or 5 hard to remember the date. but the show was soooo "FN" good. It was the last show ever at that place as well. good times

[JackIsFat2007]

Seeing these live in july

well worth 6 quid

[skitzey]

[lepermessiah76]

lucky git... I went to gathering of the thousands for 12 quid, they were the only band I knew playing and they pulled out! -__-

[lepermessiah76]

Looking forward to them at wickerman festival though :D

[xmisspnutinix]

Me too Cant Wait :)

[skitzey]

haha no way man tht sucks, i dont know them all that well bt i heard a few songs a cupple of years ago , its nt every day u can go see a good really old punk band so yeah shud be a riot :)

[BIPBDRUMMER]

I saw them in Halifax 2 weeks ago

[Edhallick]

I saw these guys when I was about 14 years old in CBGBs New York city around 1981, nobody believes me but I know what I saw. It was my first exposure to punk. They came on stage and the crowd started slamdancing and at first I thought a fight had broken out, it scared me, then I got it. It was just like this video!! Freaking goddamn incredible!

[birdy47]

these where in cbgb's in 1981?

[meatwad13666]

@Edhallick dude im seeing tomorrow for the first time and im 15 so it should be fun. thats bad ass

[pierregraslin]

@Edhallick

my first kontakt was in 1977... I was 11 years old and my neighbour came back from london... He looked strange and listen to that sort of music I never heard in french TV... and there we are now... PND

[MrSexpistols1]

@Edhallick bull

[mrblifil]

@Edhallick I remember that show well. I remember the guitarist found a way to literally hang upside down from the ceiling while they played. I think he was probably the only person ever to attempt that trick from the crumbling rafters of that hellhole. It was a great night.

[PaulBriden]

Saw them at HIgh Wycombe town Hall, Guldford University and Crawley Leisure centre. Wycombe town hall was amazing,the students bar at Guildford university was destroyed, looked like a bomb had hit it,unbelieveable. Crawley leisure centre was marred by skinhead violence. They were great live though. In 1979/80 when i saw them they were amazing....

[dortyhoor]

that clip at the start was filmed at Charlie Harpers hairdressing salon, punk or what!

[dortyhoor]

Most people don't believe me when i tell them that Charlie is/was a hair dresser.

[layorseniram]

when it came to thought provoking lyrics and stage presence the uk subs took some beating,charlie harper and the lads were/still are, among the best this country has produced long may they continue.

[vaspers]

congratulations. today this video was selected by the NYC Punk Rock Evolution Foundation.

[jefersondias1]

umas das melhores bandas do punk rock!!!

[firecallb18]

[jasperswarp]

I met Charlie at a gig in stoke newington about 15 years ago, drunk cider with him and talked for ages about all things punk. He's a true hero and a punk god.

[drlongboy]

[weecoby3]

[devilsteez666]

fucking brilliant shit

oi oi oi!

[mrblifil]

This is how I remember them. Saw them a bunch of times in the early 80s in NYC. One memorable night at CBGB stands out. They were grace in the face of chaos.

[Synthweasel]

why is there some little kids in here bashing punk? how sweet! you like modern metal music! awe! with all their image materials :)

[rockingmods]

You just had to be there!

peace n love You punks

[marley8375]

They came to visit a friend of mine in Kenosha Wisconsin LMAO cool guys never heard of them in 84 christ I was only 10

[pauljefferson]

[leeham987]

i saw them last saturday :)

they were foooookin mint!

OI OI!

[deepeeeh]

And it sounds even better to me now than it did when I was a teen in the early 80's

[pauljefferson]

vanquisher you are 18 what the fuck do you know about the subs etc.... you wernt even there

[pauljefferson]

vanquisher just looked at your profile you have a dance music video with blokes dressed up as school girls kids? what the fuck is that all about now that is lame

[pauljefferson]

lame ? you aving a fucking laff seen these at boro rock garden 78/79 fucking awesome and a local band from thornaby called the filth supported these (mich i get you loads of publicity)

[vanquisher111]

this is so lame, only proves that punk is dead

[sham64andahalf]

Saw the UK Subs last Sunday. Far from dead mate. In fact, they were as brilliant as ever.

[vanquisher111]

The problem with punk is that you need to hear it live to see the real thing, lame videos like this one with shitty sound makes a lot of people want not to hear in this case Uk Subs ever again.

[sham64andahalf]

So if you need to hear it live to see the real thing.........it can't be very dead then. So your original comment "only proves that Punk is dead" is bollox.

[AdamskiFTW]

haha that shut him up. thanks for posting the videos man

[anarchristlove]

yeah forreal vanquiusher, how can it be dead if seeing them live is the way to go? videos are whats dead, not punk.

[guardianlink12345]

@vanquisher111 i think it sounds fucking amazing. idk, i'm a bit prejudice. i fucking love punk.

[heinzie5]

@vanquisher111 this doesnt sound that bad

[deepeeeh]

This is 1979 footage wanker. Were you even born?

[ManicSamson]

HaHaHa!!! "deepeeeh" commented right on your comment!!! Back in the early 80s we would have been happy to get some punk-video on vcr or even see punk on t.v. You m.t.v-spoiled foolish morons, you!!!

[mancunian1234]

uk subs brilliant punk band god i wish them days were back!,ok sad!
