October File
Qeens Hall, Nuneaton, UK
Thursday 20th October 2005

Gotta stop drinking eight hours before the doors
open, you name it and I drank it. Not many people
about for the first few hours but in walks a good
mate of mine Reggie, but he ain't up for seeing
the League tonight because he's on the night shift,
but this don't stop him knocking back the Vodka's,
so drunk in charge of a fork-lift he's banged to
rights. Few hours into the session and there's a
few faces turning up, which is good to see, and its
drink, drink, drink for Siddeny the Punk Rocker.
Funny thing is years of going to see bands play
round England and you always bumped into the
crazy Bonehead or the nutty Punk, but tonight
they're thin on the ground!

The doors open and
the League ain't about, Animal and the
boys are having a low key night which is a shame because I like
to get a few shots before they come off stage, but each to their
own and this is their night so its business as usual for me and I'm
heading to the bar. The place fills up quite quick and the first
band take to the stage, which go by the name of
October File. It
seems like they rip though their set and then they head back
stage. I never really cared for them that much. What is it with
support bands these days, shit name's and crap music to go with
it, now if your sitting at home on your PC reading Peter Don't
Care's site, and your thinking hold on a minute, that band your
slagging off are the best band I've ever seen, my answer to that
mush is get your fucking ear's checked out my son! Bollocks is
bollocks and these were great big gonads!!!! But don't believe
me go and check them out for yourself, I was pissed as a twat so
they could have been better than this write up seems to say?

Few drinks more and Animal and the boys
are on stage, fitted out in his wraps they
ain't no mistaking this loveable rough.
Soon he's whipped up the crowd and
they're jumping about like crazy
psychopaths, 'So What', 'Streets Of
London', 'I Hate People' all bang on.
They also played some stuff from the
'Scum' album but its soon back to old
time
League with 'Woman', 'Fuck Around
The Clock' and 'For You'. One of the
Nuneaton crew loves it that much he's
jumping on and off the stage like a
fucking yo-yo, unfortunate for anyone in
his crash site though, because he ain't no
slim Jim
(tee hee - PDC). As the tub of
lard proved when he came crashing
down on top of me. There was a short
delay in the set down to a fucked guitar
but they're soon knocking them out again.
The Nuneaton boys here love it, they're
all on the dance floor...Dude, Bronto,
Wayne, Scott, Wilf, Mick and of course the tub of lard! Just like to say to Wayne thanks for ripping the arse out me trousers! It seems like I cannot go to a gig these days without coming home with me bollocks hanging out!!! The League do one encore and the night is done and dusted. I grab Animal for a quick chat afterwards and a couple of photos, funny thing is up close he's quite small, then again that could be because I'm six foot three. I bid him farewell with the rest of the tour and make an exit. Walked into a little disagreement one of the lads is having, but fuck all comes to it, and for me that's were I call it a night. First time the
Anti Nowhere League have played Nuneaton but come again soon, its bands like yourself that make Punk Rock what Punk Rock is, pure impact straight to the brain.
