| i am the real mani (28/09/2006)
What is this Barbarellis you speak of?Legendary punk club in Birmingham where I saw, amongst other: Ramones, Talking Heads (supporting Ramones) Blondie, Clash, Iggy Pop, Buzzcocks, Dexy's, U2 (who were on almost every week as I remember - usually a Tuesday night though and they were [still are] crap) and loads of others. Tiny club with a ceiling height just above your head so hot as hell and twice as loud. Great though. http://www.rocksbackpages.com/article.html?ArticleID=8433 http://www.inflammablematerial.co.uk/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=67016&osCsid=9033e7e078cbc029f9e9037cb2c9052a

you know, you know, if a feller named Monroe never fathered bluegrass
he would still be unrecognised as the grand wizard of speed metal

I'm far too forgetful for that

| | Barbarellas used to hold punk all-dayers in the 70'swith live bands on throughout. Great fun but pretty grim by closing time. Local band "The Sniveling Shits" who were very mediocre used to entertain us with their ditty "You can throw shit in my face." Another good venue was the Pschedelic Horse Disco which was above a pub in a Birmingham suburb. I saw Sioxsie and the Banshees there or about 10 mins of them before the guitarist's amp caught fire and electrocuted him and then a big fight started with some teddy boys. Happy days.

| | Great name shame about the band, they were awful and, in 1977 that was saying something. I don't remember this band but I suspect I was there. Anyone know anything about them?

They were called Eater and played Barbarellas in '77. That's about all I know.
