The Clash was a great band,far superior than the Pistols who grabbed all of the headlines,Bankrobber was my personal favorite which you never hear on the radio

The Ramones weren't bad either

I went to a gig of there's once. Not being a punk we took the opportunity to ruff them punks up in the pogo lol. Some bikers gate crashed and said they were getting tooled up and wanted us to join them outside to pogo some more - cor blimey mates lol in those days you had
Skins
Mods
Bootboys
Punks
Rockabillies
and more to contend with

It was mad being a music fan back in 76-80,I was heavily into the rockabilly/psychobilly scene but loved all kinds of music but you could get beat up just for walking down the road with a quiff or blue hair in those days,I went to a few gigs where there was a gang of skins or punks waiting outside looking for a fight,that fad seems to have faded by the 80's thankfully

There was a big Rockabillie movement Swindon and were a decent bunch in general. The punks dominated the town centre.

I hasten to add that I never joined the bikers in there action packed pogo match
