Headbutt

Headbutt: Elvina, Simon, Jym, Keith, Chris, Ashley.
Headbutt started out as a completely unlistenable post-Bastard Kestrel solo/studio project and mutated to a rotating lineup of all star noiseniks including rejects from Sperm Wails, Silverfish, Loop Guru and err what ever Stef was famous for...all the while retaining that trademark unlistenability.

This is the legendary Falcon video , remastered and optimised for viewing on a phone or a elevator  ..from the "Hunter" Compilation.
.


I just want to know who takes shopping trolleys to gigs anyway? Asking for trouble really.

Nirvana


Go On - Google the line up to Reading Festval 1991...they dont book  em like that anymore.....


We got a lift from Big Rog yhat year I think, What Im sure of is that we got to Catherines flat in good time cos we knew she would need to crimp her hair (2 hours on a good day or 4 if "medicated") however after a good period of fussing around she muttered something about clean clothes and disappeared to the freakin LAUNDERETTE for 2 hours...so we missed the Babes AND Silverfish.... 
Im not a great Nirvana fan but I understand they are popular in some parts... I remember being transfixed for a few moments by the bass players outfit (Purple Tee, High waisted Red jeans) before wandering off to find a drink and get ready for Chapterhouse....

Video is from the "Hunter" Compilation, and the best bit is the "OMG Im standing next to Kim Gordon watching Nirvana play Teen Spirit " moment half way through!!!!
