Wild memories. I'd add Patrik Fitzgerald to the list. Remember him getting beer-canned off stage at Reading by all the greasers after singing 'I've got a safety pin stuck in my heart, for you, for you.'

Wonderful to read all this – the names I knew and the ones I didn't. Thank you.

Excellent FRIP! Reckon the punk poetry is still alive and festering in the souls of the original audience... for me, punk poetry was first and foremost about the shared experience, the live performance, yocks, yells and the bearpit of YEAH RIGHT! JJC in 23 was as sparky as in 87. Could be the pharma, who knows.
