ICONIC Ska band Bad Manners, featuring the legendary frontman Buster Bloodvessel, will headline PJ Molloy’s in Dunfermline on Saturday.

Formed in 1976 while attending Woodberry Down comprehensive school in Stoke Newington in London, the band went on to become heavyweight Ska legends and a much loved ‘80s band.

Just a few years after their formation, they signed to Magnet Records and the group became a household name.

Between 1980 & 1983, Bad Manners spent more than 100 weeks in the UK charts and the band had 12 hit singles, which included Lip Up Fatty, My Girl Lollipop and Special Brew.

After a successful chart career, some of the band members left in 1986 and their line-up has been interchangeable since, but Buster Bloodvessel has always remained and he continues to play the classic anthems to audiences all over the world.

Calum Miller, from PJ Molloy’s, is delighted to welcome the band back to Dunfermline and said: “It’s looking likely that it’ll be a sell-out.

“We had them here on New Year’s Eve in 2015 and it was such a great night and they had a blast! Buster Bloodvessel is just a phenomenal frontman. He’s truly one of a kind.

“It’s great that they enjoyed it so much that they wanted to come back here. Attracting names like Bad Manners is what we’ve strived to do in the past six years.”

The band made numerous TV appearances during their heyday and Buster often made a special effort for appearances on Top Of The Pops. Who could forget him clowning around in a frilly dress and a pair of Dr Martens for the Can Can, playing the part of Henry VIII while singing to a blow up doll during Lorraine and also pretending to be a human blackhead while performing Just A Feeling?

The frontman also starred in movies Sammy & Rosie Get Laid and Out Of Order in the late ‘80s before landing a part in an episode of Boon in 1990.

In 1996, the volcanic vocalist opened up his own Fatty Towers hotel in Margate, catering and looking after those holiday makers and food lovers who have huge appetites and his residence’s ‘18 - 30 stone club’ went down in folklore, even to the approval of some of Britain’s famous food critics!

Bad Manners have always been a non-stop party band and still tour extensively in the UK and abroad.

So lace up your boots, pull on your braces and get ready to party with Buster and the boys – you won’t forget it!

You’ll have to hurry though, the previous two gigs in 2014 and 2015 sold out.

Tickets cost £22 and can be purchased from PJ Molloy’s, or you can buy them online from: www.ticketweb.co.uk.

Support comes from the Gimme Gimme Gimmes, who describe themselves as a “punk rock tribute to a parody band” that only cover songs tenuously based on Scottish musicians, writers and performers.

The gig is on Saturday April 29, doors open at 7pm and the age limit is 16 and over.
