Spring Forward









Astrakan and Captain Blood Blood and the Sea Dogs played live on the show. Third time for the Sea Dogs, resplendently in costume for the radio, though for one song only. Still, it's not every day you see a bassist wearing a tricorn hat, is it? Last night T-Lo and I were on the Music for Punks wheels of steel at the Grosvenor in Stockwell. Duncan, our old Suffolk mate from back in the day, was playing a rare acoustic set along with an entertainingly sozzled Frankie Stubbs and fellow punk rock legend TV Smith, who played an epic set. Good to give the old punk vinyl an airing - we would have been happy playing to an empty room but ended up extending our set into the small hours for a select but enthusiastic group of dancers. Not feeling very punk rock today though - I'm missing that hour we were robbed of last night. Curse you British Summer Time!
