Apparently there were 60 people inside, and loads outside protesting that the Sex Pistols were allowed to play in Caerphilly Can you imagining that happening to a band these days

i remember the sally army being in the twyn car park whilst a mob gathered outside the bluebell pub to abuse the people who went to the concert

The Bluebell pub now that takes me back

Punk hadn't taken off in this part of the world at that particular time [1976] but if that gig was performed in Caerphilly a year later then their would have been a riot. Great days!

i am up for it, give dapper a shout

My older brother saw them with Glenn Matlock at one of their earlier gigs as he was living in London in the 70's. Lucky sod saw quite a lot of the legendary punk bands like The Clash, The Ramones and The Adverts.

Will do Baz

The Bluebell pub now that takes me back

Great days. I seem to remember red carpets and lots of fake plants around the place. Also, the girl on the back bar couldn't add properly. You'd often give her a fiver for a pint and have about £8 change

Went to see them in finsbury park 96 craziest gig ive ever been to

I went to see them headline the Pheonix festival the same year, was an amazing gig

Bloody hell was it that long ago,i remember we turned up for a look,we were only there 10mins because we had shirt and ties on,we were on our way to the double diamond for the night so we were asked to leave,they were a bit scruffy in there mind.

I saw wreckless eric newport stowaway club around that time,hardly the pistols but he was ok
