You must have bought 'Born In The USA' before that concert?
TRB?? Saw them in 1977 at Manchester Uni. 'Sing If You're Glad To Be gay'...can imagine you joining in with gusto.
My best live band ~ Graham Parker and The Rumour circa 1978. Also 'Thunder', great slightly heavy rock
Originally posted by redbadgeroh, come on, Badge. Graham Parker and TRB wasn't 'punk'. Lots of good bands emerged in mid/late 70s tho', on the back of 'punk'

Originally posted by st dominics previewno TRB was not punk but played around the same time as the pistols, Clash etc and it was at the time the only place to be in Middlesbrough at that time.the place was full off punks greasers new romantics and a guaranteed fight every Saturday night.
