That's when you didn't have a care in the world nothing else mattered , crap getting older likeBack in 1978, I was 15 years old, and was massively into Punk music and the fashion of that era.
My hair was dyed dark red and spiked.
There was a pub, at the bottom of Church Street in, Mainsforth Terrace in Hartlepool, called The Birds Nest.
It was a proper dump, but it was always heaving, when they had their weekly gig night, for local bands playing punk music.
There were fights galore, some decent music at times too.
I cannot remember the names of the bands who played there, but the pub didn't last very long, and shut down for good by around 1980 iirc.
I went to the Rock Garden at Boro, a few times and saw some decent bands there.
Your right about the many members anarlI remember Dicker (one of many members) from The Toy Dolls used to own a pretty good guitar shop in town. It was called Sound World and used to be in Derwent Street and then moved to where Pop Recs is now next to The Bunker.
