Brighton born and bred. Yes I was often in Coasters. Loved the place along with Sherrys and the suite. Have since moved but not too far away.
Working in a vinegar bottling factory during the day, writing masterpieces such as this at night.
OK, here is the best 12 inch single ever in my massive bloated opinion. Until a minut later, obvs.

Hi.
I know we've touched on Danse Society before. I saw them at Brighton's New Regent in the early 80's.
Did you get to see them live in the UK or Canada?
Regards
What a time for music.
Evening squire. No I never did. So jealous! But I suspect they may not have been all that live....correct me if wrong....last gig I saw at the NR was Siouxie and the banshees and XTC....
Danse Society are reformed - orig guitarist plus newbies....I don't like much...
Stunning recordings though. Stunning.
A beautiful song:
'Untrendy' but I love this:

Indeed. Good to see The Farmers Boys in your listings. I was into them hugely at that time- then they went a bit commercial.
I'd say I have 90% of that on my iPOD.
Not to diss today - things are fragmented and curated and specialised and still amazing - but for all of that to be a fan list from a radio 1 programme with 1-3 million listeners is unbelievable. Great days for music.
Edit 95%
So much great stuff there. John Peel was a music and football loving legend.
I'm lucky to have been at just the right age, to lap it all up at the time. It's great now, finding like minded classy folk on NSC.

I envy those who saw The Jam and (early) The Police, plus obviously Joy Division.
I just missed out, being a bit too young.

Well they’re still performing. My first and best concert when I saw them on the nobody’s hero tour
