NME 8.10.77

 

NME December 1977

We are talking early 1978 now and is this really the best anyone could come up with? A fucking cartoon of a punk dressed entirely in plastic bin liners.

Stand up and identify yourself if you purchased this natty little combo and even dared to walk out of the house in it. Definitely one for the carrier and bag and changing in the loos.

Alternatively how about the punk calendar ..useful for remembering birthdays and reminding yourself when your fave bands are actually playing instead of being banned!

NME February 1978

That's more like it. Now we're talking. Anyone remembering wearing PVC pants and going to gigs. I do...mine were so tight they were obscene. Problem also is sweat has nowhere to go so you kind of come out with thinner legs and damp socks! Not sure about using a bald dummy though

September 1978 NME
