| JOCK STRAP SAYS |
The STRAPS are back - and sounding better than ever - with three new members: Mark Hobbs (bass), Stuart Philips (lead gtr) and Lloyd Dudley (drums) - joining the two original members: Jock Strap (vocals/gtr) and Dave Reeves (rhythm gtr).
I first met Dave in a squat in Battersea in early ?78. Dave was dressed in his school uniform - as he was only 16 at the time. I had just moved down from Glasgow because the Punk scene up there had ran its course for me, personally speaking. The boozers wouldn?t even let punks in - going to watch a good Punk band was becoming very hard - except for the Glasgow Apollo - where the bigger bands like The Clash played. I had been fortunate enough to have seen Buzzcocks, The Jam, Sham and all the Roxy bands on tour - however London was the only place to be back then.
There were 2 x amps, a mic and stand and an old battered kit set up in this tatty old bedroom. Dave had just sacked the singer and asked me if I could sing. I just laughed and said, ?OK
