@@Demon-Knight If you can spot the fella with the pink/purple split hair in the very front row, that's my brother and I'm stood right next to him on the left haha
I haven't listened to a borstal breakout in a long time. The vocalist has changed and it feels strange, but I saw it in my hometown. I remember the live show I saw in my hometown.
Saw Sham the first time they came to the U.S. I wanna say 1987. A crappy venue in Santa Clara California called One Step Beyond. Terrible place to hear a show because of the room and acoustics. It was a new club and word was the reason there was so many good English bands was the Owner of the club was from England. Sham put on Great show but Lord's of the New Church and G.B.H also put on killer shows. Too bad Stiv couldn't last like Jimmy and Colin have. Peace
I did like Sham69,a bit of a ramones rip off band without the long hair.I got various singles during the mid 80s and Hurry up Harry we`re going down the pub i got when i was about 20 always got me excited to go down the pub.A lot of shit songs they did though but a couple of good ones.Tell Us the Truth was one good tune.Tell us the truth,you could aim that song very much at all of our politicians.
I don't know Sham other than the famous singles, so I don't know if this is the original drummer but this is one guy who has found the perfect band for himself. Fantastic stuff? Is this the bass player who was in Lords of the New Church? Thanks.
Isn’t punk especially from the first wave supposed to be fun ? It was for us kids who were fuckin bored it didn’t matter what they sounded like or how they acted on stage
Still great...I skipped my big party for finnish school and went to concert with Sham 69 instead...that was 1985 in Gothenburg....still listen to them pretty often....loved this video ..thanks for upload.
