In March 1978, 32 years ago almost to the day, the Observer Magazine published a double page spread of the Piranhas in their police uniforms. Weirdly, there was no accompanying article, just a paragraph of the usual police related cliches that journos love so much. But a great photomontage nevertheless. Download it
Next up this month is the Brighton fanzine Situation Butane (No.1) from 1980 which you can download in pdf format. This is absolutely packed with features. Among them an interview with Joe Strummer by our very own Stewy - what a coup for the lad!
There's also a piece on the Piranhas split with Virgin Records and many reviews of local bands including the Golinskis, Chefs, Ijax Allstars, Laughing Gass, the Same, Lillettes and Vaultage 79. Situation Butane was put together by Stewy, Robyn Banks and Jon Goode.
More photos have arrived on punkdaddy's desk and have been uploaded to the site. Among them the Devils Dykes, Parrots and the Mockingbirds, whose song TV Drag has been added to the punkbrighton jukebox
