My first post had better be good, so here’s my best picture of my favourite lineup of my favourite group, taken at The Venue, Victoria on Monday 7th December 1981.
L-R Riley, Smith, Burns, Hanley S, Hanley P, Scanlon.
And the Olympus half-frame camera which I smuggled past security to take it on.

Hypnotic and acerbic (look it up!).
Often shared, and you can see why.

Ah, the Lyceum was a great venue.
Drove down from Norwich after scanning the Sounds gig guide and spotting who was 3rd on the bill, parked right outside, ran in (having bought tickets ON THE DOOR) and entered the hall to hear Moz say ‘Thank you and good night’.

Go well, Ozzy.
A king of rock, who wasn’t afraid to lend his unmistakable tones to unexpected collaborations.
One of my favourites… x

The last time the missus and I were at the pointy end of youth culture, a journey taken by coach from Norwich into the heart of Madchester.

A sad day. Ubu and David Thomas have been in my ears since I saw them on the Dub Housing tour in 1978. Go well, Crocus Behemoth. x
So sorry to hear about the death of David Thomas of Pere Ubu. I went down to photograph David a couple of years ago and he was absolutely everything you wanted him to be. The avant-garde is slightly less avant this morning.Much love to all the Pere Ubu family and with Kiersty this morning x #pereubu

As someone whose dad ran a portrait studio in the 1970s, this image is eerily familiar! x
