Fanzine
Buzzcocks, The Worst
3rd September 1977

Listed is a copy of Page 11, issue number 2 of Bombsite fanzine, describing a live performance of The Worst and The Buzzcock at Eric's in Liverpool during September 1977. Bombsite fanzine issues #2 and #3 included some interesting commentary regarding historical musical events that occurred during that period in the North of England. The fanzine's main outlet was Probe records in Liverpool, but was also distributed by the writers around Chester and Manchester.
I will try to upload more....

“the thing that struck me most about the Worst was the drummer was actually playing a children's chad vally drum kit. It was tiny (made for little children) and the guy was bashing it very VERY hard but it just sounded like a childrens toy. This was at a gig at the squat in early 77 or very late 76.the other two were mangling thier guitars and seemed to know a few notes a least,although perhaps not. but they did do some loud shouting. I remember seeing this guy at the front watching . he was wearing a badge saying 'the fall' and i thought maybe he was paul morley with a haircut (paul used to have very VERY long hair) the paul morley type with short hair seemed to like them, or at least he was concentrating very hard on them. but the rest of the people there were sort of cowering in the farthest corner away from them in the very decrepit venue. the band were, I think, the worst.
