Buzzcocks
Flyer
21st October 1978
Notes the last line of this flyer: who saw the Buzzcocks at the Northern Carnival? WE DID!

Sent in by Phil Williams, who writes:

In the wake of the Northern Carnival Against the Nazis, and the profound way it turned people’s heads, Buzzcocks, going about ‘business as usual’, set out on the ‘Beating Hearts’ tour to promote their second album ‘Love Bites’. Although I’m not sure of the cohesiveness of their continued relationship with Anti Nazi League/Rock Against Racism, they clearly allowed a continued presence of the organisation at many subsequent gigs, in the form of a merchandise stall where literature, leaflets, stickers, badges, etc, were available alongside the band’s own usual promotional merchandise. I picked up this flyer at the Malvern Winter Gardens gig along with badges, stickers and other literature, all of which,
sadly, have been lost through the passage of time.
