thats cos you were a teenager when a lot of the punkbands could neither play nor sing max.

I used to work with a bloke called Brian Harker. I remember him fighting with some coppers in the Albion. Im not entirly sure on this but did one copper end up in the canal?Brian ended up doing a spell inside after that. (circa 1980?)

Re: MOD/ROCKER OR 60s HIPPY- CHICK

I was just a scruffy flowerchild in my teens lol. Flowers in my hair, flares, hippie kind of style. Glam goth/80s style rock-chick when I was making an effort. That hasn't changed though, I still dress like that when left to personal choice
