He’s an embarrassment.

Name dropping alert!I used to stay with a Chelsea supporting pal just off Fulham road for away games(RIP John). Always used to meet post match in a pub called the finches? Suggs bought me a pint, he was drinking with Phil Daniels, both of them were cracking people

I’ve got a lot of time for Suggs tbh. Got married in the US 15 years ago and had the DJ put One Step Beyond on - English mates went mental on the dance floor and the Americans were just baffled.

They used to always be top quality up Newmarket races. Always good value and got the crowd going.

The amazing thing about Suggs is you look at him, and then you look at pictures of him in 1979, and he has barely aged at all. Remarkable.

That first Madstock was blinding for me. I mean, I was out of my gourd, but got Madness, Ian Dury & the Blockheads, and Flowered Up (at the time I thought Weekender was a work of genius). And Morrissey too. 
 

It always makes me laugh that Madness are a legit one-hit wonder in the US.

I was a 'rude boy' when ska made its comeback in 1979 or so, saw Madness, the Specials, The Beat, Bad Manners, all of them at Birmingham Odeon over a spell of 3 or 4 years.

 

Me and my mates used to do the whole two tone trousers, white socks, loafers, fred perry jumpers (no trilby hats, though, a step too far, that).

Mayfair Ballroom 1979

 

Madness

The Specials 

The Selector

 

I had every Two Tone record

@brummie Some of the best gig footage I’ve ever seen this, stage gets full of kids like you 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Marvellous stuff! I also remember going to see the ska movie, Dance Craze, also at Birmingham Odeon. Great times.

Slight diversion, but about 8 years after that, I saw De La Soul at Mayfair Ballroom. What a fucking night that was.

Weird, it's normally City who do this kind of desperate-to-reassert-our-Mancunian-identity thing. Still fair's fair, they'll make a mint selling it to the adidaphile Weller dads.

To be fair to the Roses, Mani is proper Man Utd. Here he is (45 secs) in the 80's being interviewed after a night spent scrapping with West Ham on a ferry
