The Skids - 8 November 1979 Perth
All 4 of TP! were at this gig but we didn't know each other yet! The guy on someone's shoulders is our guitarist, Derek. This image was used as part of a local music exhibition covering a wall of Perth Museum a couple of years ago!

Fanzines were great and so important to that scene. I'll copy those reviews and stick them in my TP! archive folder. Cheers. ✊️

This morning’s sounds come from Jetstream Pony’s Riley & Coe Show session, from 9th April 2025, on BBC6 Music. Something I was able to be a part of too.
Now captured on a 10” record courtesy of Precious Recordings of London, you can order a copy via the label’s Bandcamp outlet, now.
