Oh and El Jefe, whenever they play there's 2500-3000 cocks there, how many of YOUR bands could pull that after 25 years of media blackout?
Which bands are 'my bands', trev?

You must be adding at least one zero there!![]()




'Running Riot' and something else I can't remember.
Had the album at the time, and sold it at the time too. Picked up an American CD of it in a record shop in Chelmsford a few years back. Some cracking stuff on there to be honest. Best of all 'Blood on the Streets' by Criminal Class.![]()
Didn't they go all metal or was that the Cockney Rejects?

That was the Rejects.![]()
Ah yes. I saw them at the Circus Tavern a couple of years ago, at the book launch. I was about the only bloke there without ICF tattoos.

Jeez, you're like a punk Gene Hunt

I love "running riot" but don't really know any of their other stuff.
Actually, i didn't realise "england belongs to me" was by them. i'd always thought it was Skrewdriver as whenever it used to be played at one of my locals all the skinheads would give it Hitler salutes when they weren't trying to rub their balls against each other.

chico, if you want I'll burn you a copy, as I'd imagine it's quite hard to get these days. Some really good stuff on that 'Strength Thru Oi' album.![]()

That was fucking funny, and not in a good way, either!![]()

The other track on Strength Thru Oi is Taken for a Ride
Cock Sparrer have made it clear many times they want fuck all to do with the right-arm merchants. My former workmate Shug O'Neill, a left-wing Scot, was Cock Sparer guitarist around the time of Runnin' Riot. They used to get him to sing 'England belongs to me' at some gigs.![]()
I liked The Wild Ones album.![]()
Cock Sparrer
No. I don't want a DVD either, Trev.
1. I'm a blind fuck..end of nose stuff

btw - give me a shout tomorrow (Thurs) re that other bit of business. Cheers.![]()

Now now, they say sarcasm is the lowest form of wit!


PS: was 'strength thru oi' the one with nicky crane on the cover? my mate's band were on that. don't think i ever had a copy of it though (unlike the first one which i remember you could get cheap if you collected coupons from Sounds)
also, Griff, were Criminal Class the band with a member called 'Septic' who had an evil big scar down his face? didn't know they'd ever release anything.
I always remember a line from an interview with them when their singer (who i remember had a weird name) said "we've all got criminal records as long as our cocks" which , even at the time, i thought was a rather ill-advised 'boast'.
Seriously, 'Way of the Rocker' was a kickin' tune.![]()
