Roy Bayfield | Psycho Normal | July 2008
Nice to see a page about Psycho Normal. Remember seeing them in the New Regent. Graeme Hobbs was the vocalist; I can recall a guitarist called Dick Bone. A theatrical, crazy, committed combo. Graeme went on to front Tricks Upon Travellers and currently runs a lovely guest house in Spain!
I reminisced a bit here last year:

Hairbrain | Slaves of Janet | July 2008
Can't believe this website! Slaves of Janet at the Richmond with the Lillettes I think it was. Maybe it was somewhere else. I was there (wherever it was) but I cant remember anything else! Do I get a prize? HB
Matt Holland | Peter & The Test Tube Babies | July 2008
The Test Tubes were the only Brighton punk band who had any bollocks, though they've changed their style since them days.
Charles Carr | Slaves of Janet | Junes 2008
Anyone remember "Slaves of Janet"? They started off in Pietermaritzburg, South Africa, back in 1980 or thereabouts, had a few gigs, then the lead went back to UK, who was working for Virgin at the time. I was friends with Simon Davis, who followed "Janet" back to the UK and was living in Brixton, where I visited him a few times. Simon then came back to South Africa where he passed away shortly afterwards. Simon's parents were killed the following year in a terrorist attack at a country club in Port Elizabeth. Any of this ring a bell? All the best. Charles

Peter | Peter & the Test Tube Babies | June 2008
Good morning sir, what an absolutely excellent site! I salute you on your research and presentation. When I have a bit more time I will have a dig around in the loft and see if there is anything I can send you. In the meantime here is a flyer for our next local gig. This could well turn out to be our only Brighton gig this year to celebrate our 30th anniversary! Come down to The Engine Rooms (one of the only venues locally to almost feel like the old Art College Basement AND it sells real ale) on Sat 5th of July and judge for yourself whether there is still life in these old dogs. Oh and by the way I can't shed any more light on WHO burnt down the Resource Centre but I can tell you we were the last ever band to play there. As I remember it was a Rock Against Sexism gig. To be honest it was not without incident (as were most of our gigs those days) and this was not helped by a few guys who got onstage to conduct a willy measuring contest! Hardly the time and place! Anyway I had had to pay a deposit and when I returned the next morning with the key hoping to get it back I was met by many fire engines, fireman, various local musicians trying to salvage their gear and some very irate Centre workers. We lost quite a bit of equipment that was stored in our arch downstairs but more importantly Brighton lost a lot more. The end of an era. See ya. Peter
Russell Pointing | Red Squares | June 2008
Hello, I was the 'Pete Best' of the Red Squares, and still get an enormous thrill at having been on an L.P. as a track on Vaultage 80. I got a nostalgia overload looking at your Brighton Punk site and got a real warm feeling looking back now that we're all fat old and bald, oh yes we are!! Great to see Simon Spain is still alive, he was a great friend and a great artist. After the Red Squares I had a couple of bands but concentrated on promoting other bands at the sussex sports centre and ice rink in Queen Square and finally at the Cinescene Cinema in North Street, which is now Burger King, (I hope they managed to get the graffiti off the wall), I put on all the great Brighton Bands some of whom deserved greater recognition than they got.The reason for writing is to pass on some of the pictures and posters that I've got, as I said Simon was a talented artist and did many of my posters, I'm sure he won't mind me passing them on. Theres a Golinski brothers poster, and a couple of red squares piccys, the group photo is us recording the Vaultage track at Falmer.
Please find them attached. Regards and Thanks Russell Pointing

ATTILA THE STOCKBROKER | Gigs | march 2008
Hi everyone – my new poetry book’s out! ‘MY POETIC LICENCE’ (Selected poems and song lyrics 1998-2008) Published 19th May 1998, Roundhead Publications ISBN 978-0-9532812-1-3
I’m proud to announce the publication of ‘My Poetic Licence’, my first book of poems for 10 years. I’ve brought it out it myself, as I did the last one, for the simple reason that I got tired of paying my previous publishers (Unwin and Bloodaxe) two-thirds of the cover price for copies to sell at the 100 plus gigs I do every year! The book is available at all my forthcoming gigs (there are lots, see below) from my PO box and from the online stores on my websites. No, it won’t be in the shops – but the ones I did with ‘big’ publishers were difficult to find in the shops anyway. It will, however, be on sale in my favourite pubs – the Evening Star in Brighton and the Duke of Wellington in Shoreham. In the book there are 41 poems and song lyrics and 2 autobiographical prose pieces, and it comes with a 73 minute compilation CD featuring highlights of my work from the past 28 years. You can read all about it and see the contents list for book and CD here http://www.attilathestockbroker.com/poeticlicence.html
I have huge amounts of gigs coming up, including book launches in London and Brighton and a summer crammed full of festivals. Here they are. If you run a website/fanzine/newspaper/radio station(!) and can publicise the book with a link to the above site that would be ACE! Needless to say, I am available for interviews....Cheers! Attila

Sally Chambers | Smeggy & the Cheesy Bits | May 2008
Here's an important bit of Brighton Band history. It doesn't concern the town of Brighton, but it does involve the Brighton band, Smeggy and the Cheesybits. Letters have been appearing on the Bitching page of the House of Cheese [http://www.cheesybits.com] about the throwing of a sandwich at the band in its early days and apparantly it was this sandwich that started the tradition of chucking flour, eggs etc. at the band, a tradition continued later in King Kurt. This sandwich is still in existence it seems and a song has been written about it by an Isle of Wight band. It's at the bottom of this page http://www.cheesybits.com/revenge/song.htm

Russ Bestley | Hitsville UK | May 2008
Hiya Punk Brighton. Great site, always worth a visit and love the downloads section... Just wanted to draw your attention to the launch of my new site, Hitsville UK (see below)... I have taken the liberty of putting your link on there already, hope that's ok - I'm an old Tunbridge Wellian (though I've been in Portsmouth for 28 years now...) and was a frequent visitor to Brighton on the bus, either with skateboard in hand or to go to gigs in the late 70s/early 80s... as the Anti Nowhere League used to say, I've been to Hastings, I've been to Brighton, I've been to Eastbourne too.... If you like the site, please spread the word... All the best, Russ. Hitsville UKHello All, After many months of hard work, both by myself and web designer Rob Bevan, Hitsville UK, a detailed review of the development of UK punk and graphic design in the wider regions of the UK, is finally online. The site, based on successful exhibitions in Southampton, Blackpool and London during 2007, includes a range of free download material, punk links, and an interactive matrix displaying UK punk seven inch single sleeves by region between the years 1976 to 1984. It also details design elements and plays short sound samples of each record. To explore, go to: www.hitsvilleuk.com
The website pays tribute to the vast range of seven inch singles which came under the banner of ‘punk’ between 1976 and 1984. It aims to show new perspectives on the development of graphic styles and regional variations in punk identity away from the major metropolitan centres, and beyond the ‘key’ designers of the period who feature in a range of art and design histories.

Jon Linscott | Post-punk reviews | April 2008
Hi Stuart, I never knew who had written or performed this track, Ticking Away.. I first heard it back in about 1984 when, on an almost obsessive crusade to acquire every recording Mike Scott (Waterboys) had ever made, I turned up a gem of a cassette. It was the 'lost' recordings by Scott's first proper band, Another Pretty Face. They'd signed to Virgin on the back of some great live performances and the thought was that Scott, heavily influenced by Patti Smith, Tom Verlaine et al at this time, would fulfill his new wave, post punk potential (I far prefer his early stuff, to where he subsequently went, with much of the APF stuff being, in my opinion, his best work). Anyway, there were two tracks sat amongst these APF recordings, and I could never work out how they fit into the sessions. Well, now it turns out that 'This is zero' and 'Ticking away' were recorded along side these APF tracks, recorded at Brittania Row studios in London, with Mike Scott playing piano on both. Apologies if you know all this, however reading your description of Ticking away on your site made me realise what a great 4 mins of music it was/is. If you don't have a copy of this version, let me know and I'd be glad to send them both to you. It's also spurred me into finding out more about TV21 and I'm making all the connections now, how did I miss this band back then?! Its good to see that they're recording again, I must try and find more of their stuff..
Thanks for the thought provoking account of your top tracks, it's taken me, rather ironically given ticking away's subject matter, on a real nostalgia trip..! Cheers, Jon
Josh Kaye | free downloads | April 2008
Hey guys! Good to listen to old Paul Martin yakking (I'm old too ya know!). I remember The Relatives, Charlie Farley and all. Great days. Rock n roll! Josh
Rob Hayes | Birds With Ears | April 2008
Demo recordings were probably done at the music deptartment at Falmer(Sussex Uni) with Billy Cowie. I certainly wouldn't remember dates really. It may be more likely that some of the demos were done on Billy's portastudio. He did those on his own, or just with Ian Smith. That was their way of presenting songs to the band; pretty much all sorted out as a basic track with drum machine, keyboards and vocals. At a rehearsal we'd add our parts to it and arrange it between ourselves. If it was a song that I had a hand in creating it was done in a very different way. 'Danny Kaye' came about from the opening guitar riff; from me and Simon Lewis (drums) jamming together and saying, 'oh that sounds good, let's do something with it'. Ian Smith wrote lyrics which were amazing, Ian Porter came up with that bassline for the 'inch worm, inch worm' section, and the whole thing gelled into what was my favourite song to play live,certainly.
But it truly was a nice piece of collaboration. Love Rob
exposeduk@hotmail.co.uk | The Exposed | April 2008
Hey, how's it goin? We are a Punk Rock band from Portsmouth, and are currently trying to get as many gigs as we can to promote our new demo. Over the last year we have played numerous gigs across the UK with bands including Stiff Little Fingers and The Bouncing Souls.We finished off the year with a European tour, and now we are aiming to continue developing our fan base in the UK. We're always looking to do more gigs, and we would love to play at the FreeButt. You can hear our demo on www.myspace.com/theexposed or a press pack is available on request. Hope to hear from you soon. Keep in touch. The Exposed
David Roughton | Objeks/New Objeks | April 2008
Hi, I was the bass player in the Objeks and New Objeks - and we did a recording of 2 songs when we turned into the New Objeks – I came across a cassette of these songs and have converted to mp3. The quality is a bit naff as it was not a master tape but a copy on cassette tape (seems like years ago – jeez it was years ago!) Please add them to your excellent web site: ‘Two boys talking’ and ‘Watch Television’. I also have the artwork for the cassette which I will scan and send later. One day I will find the time to send some of the photos I took when doing the Brighton bands calendar – if I can find the negatives….
Dawn: I have the wavs as well if you want them – I’m sure they can be improved. Best wishes, David

Rob Struthers | Rampage & The Techniques | April 2008
Hi Daddy. I found the site after trying to find some Slaves Of Janet info, and up you popped. Ken & Jan Lailey (of SoJ) are still mates of mine and I still see them sometimes, but I was in a band called Rampage that took part in a Battle Of The Bands gig in Seaford with them. It was won by The Techniques eventually - remember them? We came second. I played guitar. I doubt anyone remembers us, but we were mod wannabes - played The Northern & Alhambra in Brighton fairly regularly until we morphed into D'Arc and became part of that moody thing that went on in the early 80's. I guess as D'Arc we did a bit better, but not much. I loved Brighton so much I moved here in '79 and stayed ever since. Great site and it's brought back a lot of memories. Rob Struthers

EFMSteve@aol.com | Alhambra | March 2008
Hi, funnily enough Debbi recently brought your website to my attention. She also got me the old Vaultage discs on CD for me much to my enjoyment! I can't believe how many years have passed...I am now resident in California and was recently back in Brighton for the first time in years. I had to stay at the Thistle Hotel which was built on the site of the old Alhambra to honour it! Many a Sunday night spent watching the Piranhas or the Vandells at that old place...Would love to get Pete Fraser's e-mail address to touch base. Greetings from Sunny LA! Cheers, Steve Botting
Fiona Selby | free downloads | March 2008
Hello Brighton! Must say a big thank you to you for putting all this together, it has brought tears to my eyes! Seeing all those old faces and the old bands. I have now no gaps in my Vaultage tunes. Long may it continue. Love, Fiona
Mike Forcell | free downloads | February 2008
Good site. I'm amazed you've got so much stuff on here. Love the Vaultage albums, thanks for making them available. Last time I visited was back in 2004, it's really come on a bundle since then. Cheers, and hope you have a great year. Oi! Mike

Max | Buccaneer punks | February 2008
Hi there, just ended up on the Brighton punk webshite and thought I'd drop a line. I am one of the original Brighton Buccaneer punks and attended most of the Brighton punk gigs from late 78 onwards. Be nice to see some photos up from this period, but very few people managed to afford a camera or keep it in one piece for long enough to get the prints done! Anyway I'm alive and well and working on art stuff. Just did the Bill Bailey website and many other more evil corporate things. Pleased to say I'm still sporting the mohican and making peoples lives difficult. Looking forward to more site updates. max

Pete Fraser | Exclusives | February 2008
Hi, I often worked with Steve Botting and his PA rig during the early 80s but never new he was an ex member of the Exclusives. I last bumped into him backstage at a Bangles gig in Berkely, California sometime in 1986 (he was engaged to marry their drummer...it appears the rest is history)
http://www.thebangles.com/page.asp?id=15739
"...Debbi Peterson, who has a 9-year-old son and a 2-year-old daughter with husband Steve Botting (who did production management for the Bangles in the '80s), has worked on..." Well done that man. Pete Fraser
PS: I love your site. it almost compensates for the missing brain cells, the bloody little stop outs.

Nick McGerr | Ijax Allstars | February 2008
I think you’ve got this one all wrong. I’ve got a brilliant live tape i made of them at the Executives / Woody & the Splinters free gig in Hollingbury and it sure wasn’t the line up you have in that pic. Terry Tetlow, who is Brighton’s best loved ska musician, will tell you all about it (get him a drink). Andy Taylor, who is no longer on the planet starred on vocals and mellotron. Ijax were more ska/bluebeat than dub reggae but could do it all including a massive “One Step Beyond” way before Madness. If you know how to get hold of Caroline Casswell (Brighton Uni/South East Arts Video/ “Reel Time” - Brighton Library) I’m fairly certain she can put you in touch with the festival organizer and may have a copy of the tape. Neil was in “High Time”. n
p.s. when did Executives” release “Shy Little Girl” (as loved by J.Peel) ?
Dave "Blotto" Williams | Midnight & The Lemon Boys | February 2008
Re: Marcus Myers’ closing note on his Kemptown Rockers (whenever it was posted. I don’t know because, I confess, I haven’t been keeping track of Punk Brighton very closely of late). It’s not really true that I was ever a member of the band. Marcus, what your vague recollection stems from is the fact that, after being booted out of Nicky and the Dots in January 1979, I rehearsed once or twice with the embryonic Kemptown Rockers, down in the Vault where Sago and Ogs lived at the live, but I opted to join Peter and the Test Tube Babies instead. They were a bit more established, you know, and, vain as I was, I didn’t want to be out of the public eye for too long. I don’t remember whether I ever saw the Kemptown Rockers or Midnight and the Lemon Boys live – if I did, the loss of memory can probably be put down to excessive booze consumption. I was called Blotto after all – but I sometimes wondered whether I’d jumped the right way. The Kemptown Rockers’ style le! ft more room to move musically because the chord changes were less quick-fire, and, with my then nascent melodic tendencies as a bassist, that could have suited me better. But “Non, je ne regrette rien” – I think. (Pardon my pretentious French). Dave "Blotto" Williams
Chris Cappell | Vaultage 79 | February 2008
Hi, I remember the days pogo-ing in the Vault to Flesh and Wrist Action, there was some energy! Listening to Vaultage 79 has been a blast. Great website. Chris
stevie | Midnight & the Lemon Boys | January 2008
Can anybody get hold of Mr Myers these days? Of course we know he lives, works and plays in Spain, but has lost touch in the last year or so. Would be sincerely obliged if you knew how I could reach him again...Meanwhile, enjoy more of his past life here: http://www.myspace.com/hardrainrock. Best wishes, Steve Phypers xx

My Feds are desperate!!!! We are playing in a Red Stripe Music Competition on Friday Jan 25th at The Providence in Brighton and we need as much support as we can get. Its £2 to get in and we are on at 10pm, but there are some fantastic bands in the competition as well, so it's well worth coming down earlier. Cheers Loads, Leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Nice variety on tunes, so different as bands can be. Good days in Alhambra and Buccaneer. Marta xxx
BIGTIMEKARAOKE | Vaultage | January 2008
This is site is sooo addictive! Since first discovering it, I have now added all the Mp3 files I never had to my Vaultage collection. The quality isn't always great but I have improved some of these no end using Wavepad studio. I would really like a copy of The Piranhas single Zambezi with the two B-sides I've never heard of, namely Who Neeeds You and Darrabukkas. God only knows how it slipped my attention when released. Can you help? Surely someone must have the Piranhas Marquee Vlub complete gig recorded (Cheap and Nasty). If my memory serves me correctly, there was a cassette that predated the Vaultage series, what was on it? After forming a band in Brighton last year, two of us moved to Eastbourne and Tunbridge Wells, but still play every now and then in the usual venues in Brighton. Check out our website, - www.insanesociety.co.uk And yes, I do Karaoke for a living (someone has to). All the best, - Wag
P.S. Do you recall a band who I believe came from Worthing called "The Dots" who released a single called Helen in ya Headphones on EMI - were they the Dots who were on the Vaultage LP's?
Mr JCD | 7" singles | January 2008
Hey! Remember me? Johnny at Virgin. About 15 years ago I fled the UK for California. I have a strange feeling I left a box of 7" singles behind. Did I leave them with you by any chance? Maybe it was all a dream. Hope all is well. Mr. JCD
