[izzlebizzle1]

[bloater999]

2006; it was a Radio 6 event called 'Pretty Ancient' to celebrate the first punk festival at the 100 Club in 1976

One of my all time favourite bands,never had the chance to see them, been a fan since 1977. Hey!

[matelot95]

bloater999 - the 'Ant' in question was Marco Pirroni

[Meese42]

The fact that is so awful makes it so utterly compelling.

The sound reminds me of so many punk gigs I went to....

The video just needs a raucous audience super-imposing on it and it would be complete!

GREAT DAYS!!!

[fatuesque]

utter shit

[bloater999]

But not as bad as Kansas eh?!

[peterkvideo]

1977 Punk Rules!!!!

I remember catching them at Morecambe in 2005 when they 1st reformed and was very very impressed with them.

[bloater999]

I was there too - excellent, brilliant fun!

[JANER64]

Bit of a lacklustre performance of this great song.

[bloater999]

Yeah I've heard them play it a lot better, but it was a funny gig organised by BBC 6 with loads of press pointing their cameras on them as part of the 30 years of punk celebrations - still great mind you!

I loved this song. Rodney Bingenheimer's "Rodney On The Rocks" radio show on KROQ in LA always opened with a live version this song around 79/80.

[CLARAB0W]

Great!

[Jetlag003]

Just great to see them again. Still as camp as ever!

Brilliant

[edkollin]

Who else preformed that night.

[bloater999]

Sorry can't remember but it was a young new band who were pretty good, and then it was followed by Punk Karoake which included Spizz and others taking the mic

[edkollin]

Thanks. Is this the same 100 Club from the '70's?. Here in New York the original CBGB's stayed open at the same locale until late last year(Patti Smith last preformence)

[bloater999]

Sorry I keep trying to respond but youtube doesn't register... here I go again.. Yep it's the same London club where the first Punk Festival took place with the Pistols and an early Souixsie & the Banshees featuring Sid Vicious on drums and an 'Ant' on guitar.

Worth a visit if you're ever in town!

Cheers

Alan

[edkollin]
