The Sandman Posted October 16, 2006 Report Share Posted October 16, 2006 Yesterday, Suedehead & Moi witnessed the 3 members of DP that recorded this single back together................... Callum Reid, the drummer told us that Crawfy was back as bass player, 20+ years down the line as HHIBSS' cousin, Davy Cameron was bombed out for being a tosser, a family thing perchance.....????????????? We believe that drunken maniac Polo (ex Interzone Drummer and DP guitarist in the last line up) is still on board, but we're not sure about Seedhill's Sensational Chad Adams, 50 year old chanter and Saints fan.......................

I got the chance once to join defiant pose, I used to go to their practice sessions with wee calum, they weren't too chuffed with the guitarist who was heavily in to status quo so crawfy asked if I could play the guitar (I had a guitar at the time) and I bullshited and said I could, he tried me out and saw quickly I couldn't play more than one feckin cord so that was the end of that. I loved the drums, I remember bugging my uncle Hughie who was a drummer (well known in Paisley) to give me his drums. I remember polo being right in to the stranglers aswell as myself. Bill do you remember a guy called clarky from feegie who was a punk, around that time? There is a punk night on Oct 29th at the carling academy, are you going to that?

Clarky was totally off his chump, got 3 moon for going into the wee shop at the end of Mill St with a toy gun for a chortle and got lifted.......... He was sadly killed when he fell of his motorbike and bumped his head and what was a minor blow caused his death, his girlfriend was pregnant when that happened and the boy ended up being named Clark............ We went to Port Vale's ground in 81 to see Motorhead & Ozzy Osbourne and in the middle of thousands of plastic bottles flying about , Clarky held a 2 litre cider bottle and skelped the same longhaired LSD victim at 10 second intervals inbetween the headliners................... There was an article about him in the PDE about a year ago, but it was done in bad taste without taking his family or Susan and Clark into consideration............ I saw the thing at the CA but the crazy Jehovah Witness Cleaner from my work is a member of the Flashman Society and is going to see the Damned, so that's killed any idea of that............ It's a strange bill, Damned, Rezillos, The Beat (without Wakeling,Steele and Cox) and GBH................. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad Adams is no longer a member of Defiant Pose, having (alledgedly) comitted an offence, at least in band terms, of Anthony Blunt prportions. Polo, the guitar hero, most definately is. The band will release a 14 track cd soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defiant Pose played the town hall once, and I spoke to clarky and asked him if he had seen the sex pistols live, he said he had. There can't have been too many people from paisley who had actually seen them live. Me and big midge milton were the first punks in our school in 1977, I got a doing (in the bogs) at merksworth school disco for pogoing to god save the queen.

closet saint Posted October 17, 2006 Report Share Posted October 17, 2006 (edited) I had Hendy and many others up here after their top gig in club 69 about 6 months ago, at Janie Kyles 40th party, good chin wag had by all, and with Fiona in the Burgh last week after the scotland match. I'd tend to go for the larger potential audience at asda, as it has better stewarding Edited October 27, 2006 by closet saint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
closet saint Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 This pic from last sunday shows that Callum and Crawfy still look pretty much the same as they did 25 years ago, bar the odd scar and tattoo, and still not having aquired any dress sense, however, Joe and Minty now sport the new , if not highly controversial punk look, of dying ones' hair the new Paris autumn colour of "bald" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
