Adam Ant tomorrow night lads. Many of you are probably too young to remember but they were a half decent punk band before all that ‘Prince Charming’' ‘stand and deliver’ ‘goody two shoes’ carcinogenic shit.
Always thought Adam was more than just a pop act.. Jordan. ‘Sniffin Glue’, Mclaren, vivienne westwood ‘sex’. Blitz club, Rusty Egan… a Petri dish mutation of punk and new wave..
First guitar riff i learned at 13 was ‘Dog eat dog’ on East ham Daves battered 60’s six string , Epiphone acoustic.
Not a huge fan Of Adams music after ’81. but there you go . probably be a load of old nostalgic tom tit but ’er indoors Jo deserves a night out..
Fantastical to me ,but according to wiki Adam is 69 and Marco Pirroni is 65!.. i always thought adam was in his early 60’s and Marco was 80!
Who knows, probably percolate a tear or two while he knocks out ‘Car Trouble’ as i think of how young , beautiful , innocent and wonderfully Niave we all were back then before the weight of the world crushed our generation into molecular decimation, with its poison arrows of Mortgages, work, Kids, health, relationships, Divorce, money, Addictions and keeping your head above the plasma pool of basic need as a homo sapien in 2024 .
All that shit that is the knuckle duster of life 24/7 in the one square yard in front of your face.
Before that there was punk. And there was Adam.
Hello , my name is Glenn, I’m 56 and i’m An Adam Ant Addict.
