Best Of MySpace
A new page of fun for Punk77 taking the moosic right into 2007 and giving something back. My Space is a magical world of fun, chancers, idiots and thank god some cracking music. Mad Daddy knows MySpace like I know the backroads of Doncaster and every update he'll bring you 5 of the best and they may not necessarily be punk!

This update we present to you featured band Riff Randells along with Tranzistors, the Faceless Werewolves, The Hitchhikers (I love em'!) and The Flakes.

Marco Pirroni  
Its another interview with Senor Pirroni. 5 years after the infamous Punk77 lost interview scrolls were found in a cave in Jordan, Ms Dayglo sits down with the man who launched a thousand punk retrospectives for an informal chat and some more observations on life, punk, the Ants and his new project The Wolfmen.

The Boys London SS Hollywood Brats Dee Leaves Eater! Arctic Frost
The Boys were pop punk and chock full of tunes. Why oh why did they not make it bigger than they did then. Ian Part Time tells the story. Mythical & legendary. Just two words to describe the seminal band that never played gigged or recorded but had so much impact on punk roc.k Feather boas, make up, long hair and trashy rock and roll all while being sick on you. Proto punk or in today's trend, post punk no doubt. Don't panic! We're talking about 1977 and the story of the 'Oh Boy!' kids magazine shoot here. As far as I know they are still together and all loved up! These boys had a shot at fame at the very tail end of the Roxy Club. Alderman Huggins, their guitarist, tells their story and what happened next.
 
Elton Motello
What with originally being in a band called Bastard with Bryan James, songs about 'giving head'  and having the world wide smasheroonie 'Ca Plane Pour Moi' nicked from him by Plastic Bertrand, you've got to hand it to Alan Ward aka Elton Motello.
