I tend to say that the Buzzcocks are what happened when punk started to think it was okay to know how to play an instrument and thought harmony wasn't the devil. Even if they are Northern punk rather than London punk they still push all the right buttons for me...even if I did mutter that punk was offically dead when one of their songs was used in Shrek 2.
I have to admit that I smile to myself every time I walk past the 100 Club on Oxford Street in London. I used to catch my bus home from work home right outside of the club and even though now it is usually Salsa lessons on offer it was nice to know that the club where London punk was born is still open.
