  2. Last week in Derby. Never thought I'd see them still going. And he's 71. I hope I could do something like this when I'm 71.

    It was a good gig. I mean they've played these songs for fifty (fifty!) years but it was great.

  3. @hongminhee The first ten words just made me hear Sham 69.

    «I don't need a flash car to take me around
    I can get the bus to the other side of town»

  11. Another week, another #TOTP performance from Sham 69. "Hersham boys" this time, filmed in a horrid brown-yellow filter.

    David Hepworth was unimpressed for Smash Hits: "A tired, hollow effort struggling between weary attempts at rabble-rousing and blush-making pseudo-Springsteen 'street' songs that reek of desperation and contract fulfilling. As empty self-satisfied a record as anything they supposedly set out to replace."

    Yeah, but why's the drummer got a dead animal on his head?

  12. Sham 69 - "If the kids are united"

    "Don't turn me off, turn it up," says Mr. 69 into the camera, before launching into one of *the* punk / new wave anthems. Complete with above-the-head clapping and a guitar solo buried miles down in the mix.

    Jimmy Pursey has three minutes to address the nation, and seizes it with both hands and bags of enthusiasm.

  14. I’m pretty sure that I bought this #LordsoftheNewChurch album at Audio Files in Grand Rapids, MN, when I was 16. It’s worth noting that #TheLords are still one of the only so-called #supergroups that does anything for me, with a member each from #TheDeadBoys #TheDamned #Sham69 & #TheBarracudas
