Retro Hardcore/Skatecore Punk

[neilll]

BITD I mostly enjoyed - Jesus and Mary Chain (early stuff), Loop, Spacemen3, GayBikers, Leatherface, Fugazi NoMeansNo, Hawkwind, Pixies, Mudhoney, Sonic Youth, Pitchshifter, some of a very long list.

Now you're talking (although not really punk). Was a major Loop, S3 and Hawkwind fan, saw Mudhoney many times.....the first time they were top of the bill, then a band called Tad and at the bottom of the bill was some band called Nirvana .

Didn't rate Nirvana as much as Mudhoney...they never got close to them.....we're drifting away from punk into that whole 1988 thing....the 'G' word.....

It was all done in house by the company I was working for: Ents.tv

T'was shot in a couple of venues, and due to the requirements of video we did the lighting and then effects were added at the editing stage.

With you on that one. I didn't think Nirvana touched Mudhoney, especially live.

I saw MH do a cracking set at Redding in '90 That was a stonking year:

Mud Honey
The Pixies
The Fall
Inspiral Carpets
Faith no More
Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds.

We've probably walked past each other in many a dingy, throbbing, stinking London venue then

Never being your average kinda guy.....my Stag Night was a trip to see Mudhoney and some ferocious alcohol (and other) abuse.....








Not long after that I divorced her

You're more likely to have stepped over me, but I did seriously do the circuit in the late 80's early 90's

Seriously did some other sh!t too, but that's another story for another time.

Nice to see No Means No mentioned. Seen them several times in Ottawa. Also still listen to them, and like most uf us still have it all on vinyl, which means I get to see and play them next week when I'm in Vancouver

You're not wrong.

It'd be cool to exchange war stories over a pint or two. I could recount the time I slept through a Pixies gig in London. That was one hell of a weekend.
