You sound like one of us, the punks round my way would have banished you to the saddoes corner with us for crimes like ''Octopus''
Violence was never a problem on the genteel south coast, except for the Saturday night bloodbath that was tiffanies in Bournemouth every weekend but that was everyone else fighting whilst we looked on. A whole bunch of us short hair, long hair,hippy,metal , punks used to go to soul night in Bournemouth and had zero problems til 2-tone/mod came along, that really fucked things up but that's another thread
The biggest problem we had in 77/78 was probably older rockers who regarded Judas Priest and the Pistols as new and therefore bad and were just as blinkered and dumb as the punks but usually bigger and meaner.
I suspect there are as many different stories as there are people on this forum.
