Used to know them when I worked in a record shop on the civic in Wythenshawe along with a buch of their red skin friends. Spenner, Slim and a couple of others. Rossi used to come tino the shop every week and listen to records with us.

Love them, Live at the Factory is the live one I have, as well as DIDS and an album called "Punk Singles Collection" which I got in that shop in North Street a few years ago. It's got 25 tracks on it, including acoustic versions of Since You Went Away, Situations, I'm Mad and You're a Bore. Do you know if they still play live?

Yes they do.
Played rebellion last IIRC

Absolutely..remember it well ...just can't remember the name of the place as it was then...pub...long and narrow....West Street near the seafront end between the Bosun and Queen Anne.

new regent was south of queen anne paast the amusments

 

[Return of the Rev]

I was at that gig too. Never sweated so much....it was jam-packed....

Must have been the nov 77 gig,my memories of only a handful must have been us getting in early and pissing about at her sound check
Mind you 40 would have packed out the new regent

There's a good reference to Slaughter and the Dogs in the superb "Awaydays" novel by Kevin Samson.

Awaydays is a superb book much better than the film.
All the Kevin Samson books are good.

So what is it now? My hazy memory is the place on the north corner of Boyces Street.

25/11/1977 i would have thought,we pulled her plugs out and she got the right hump,around 40 at the gig

I went to loads of those punk gigs at the New Regent and they were always packed - don't remember Siouxsie down there but there is absolutely NO WAY that she would only attract 40 punters in late '77!!!

Good grief! Please don't say Slaughter and the dogs are still going. They were total shyte thirty five years ago and are highly unlikely to have become any less so. You'll be telling us next that ninety year old Charlie Harper and the UK Subs or that untalented poet bloke from Southwick are still going. Sake! You were never supposed to make a CAREER out of it

I like that some of the old punk bands are still going, I put 999 on at Reflexions (Lewes Road, later became the Stream Inn and then got closed down, it's now the chaplaincy building for Brighton Uni I think), they were awesome and still pulled enough people for me to make a decent profit.

Well, the Subs were still going last year http://steveignorant.co.uk/2012/07/uk-subs-in-norwich-7th-july-2012/#popular and were visited by that former member of CRASS, now a volunteer lifeboatman, Steve Ignorant.
