Exiled Girl Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 Who sang - and this is a genuine question, as I cant remember but I've just thought of it - about being in love with a girl from a certain manchester megastore checkout desk that would be The Freshies in 1981 Ah, The Freshies. "I can't get (boing, boing) Bouncing Babies by The Teardrop Explodes" Thanks Hunty, I'm prepared to sit through at least 2 of your interesting anecdotes as a thanks for that reminder.

stekbwfc Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 Now look what you've done By Jonathan Kent BBC correspondent in Kuala Lumpur Last Updated: Thursday, 06,Jan, 2005, 17:45 GMT 18:45 UK After reading various English football sites : West Ham online & Bolton Wanderers Ways: Malaysian punks told to conform: Punk may not be dead, but in the Malaysian state of Kelantan it looks set to EXPLODE. One punk had his head shaved... but skinheads are also taboo The Islamic department in the state capital has launched a campaign to rid the area of punk and skinhead culture after deciding they are un-Islamic. Teenagers who sport Mohican haircuts may find themselves confronted with a pair of clippers and verses from the Koran. Punks in the city of Kota Baru appear to have been undone by their patriotism. A group of them asked for permission to hold a gathering as part of Malaysia's Independence Day celebrations. Far from welcoming this show of national pride, the city's Islamic Development Department, or JPI, was moved to action. Officers laid down a marker by detaining a 17-year old youth for looking excessively punky. He was wearing torn clothes and had his hair dyed red and cropped into a Mohican: here known as a "Trojan" haircut. He was given a lecture by officials who offered him Koranic verses and told him to abandon his unhealthy lifestyle before shaving his head. 'Holding hands in public' The JPI says it will be out in force for Independence Day on 31 August, to make sure local punks and skinheads stay at home. Kelantan is governed by Malaysia's opposition Islamist party PAS. A spokesman for the state's chief minister says that the party is not against all Western styles but that authorities are concerned to prevent any possible gang rivalries from developing. There have been a number of cases in Malaysia recently where government ministers have criticised council officials for the manner in which they have enforced morality by laws. Officers in Kuala Lumpur and the northern city of Ipoh were told that they had overstepped the mark after trying to fine couples for holding hands in public. Small-town mentality Two years ago it wasn't punks but fans of "black metal" who found themselves out of favour with the authorities. Then the government backed action by the authorities in the northern state of Kedah. There the religious affairs committee proposed to medicate rockers they accused of practising Satanism, carrying out animal sacrifices and defiling the Koran with drugs used to treat addicts. Both Kedah and Kelantan are conservative rural areas where Malay Muslims are in a large majority. Local attitudes towards Western fashion may have as much to do with a certain small-town mentality as religious sensibilities. In large cities like Kuala Lumpur young people are far freer to express themselves. Don't know what made me do that O:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smiley Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 Exploited had a few good uns as well. Sex & Violence. And remember when they played Dead Cities on TOTP???? Bought a few things from EP Lees. Remember ordering Kill The Poor 7" by DK. I was too small to see well over the counter. So my dad had to chip in... (supposedly as a mature adult - looking after his kid on the one day of the week a divorced parent did)..... "Err, Yeah, Kill The Poor please by the Dead Kennedys!" Quality moment. Streets of London was ANL. Backed up by So What. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maggie Tate Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 I've got an old video of Conflict on at the Astoria in London and about an third of the way through the police storm the venue and all hell break's loose. The camera just focuses on the brawling after that, the fact there's a band on is incidental. Loads of trendy communists getting knocked to fu ck, great.
