    Saw them at The Whiskey a Go-Go. Sid and Nancy were there, as well as Jones and Cook who headlined with, I think, some of the Heartbreakers? Johnny Thunders? Tried to Google it, but nothing comes up.

    Think the Shits singer was a bloke called Les Miserables, as John Peel used to say, probably an assumed name.

    Some obscure bands

    Frank Sumatra and the Mob

    Serious Drinking - who gave the world "Bobby Moore is Innocent"

    The Velvet Underpants
