REVIEW: REBELLION FESTIVAL 2019, WINTER GARDENS, BLACKPOOL, DAY THREE<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s day three of the 23rd<\/sup> Rebellion Punk\nFestival and the main topic of conversation as we arrive at the Winter Gardens\nis how good The Stranglers were last night and how unbearably hot it was in the\nEmpress Ballroom, with lots of people unable to make it through their set. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

I don\u2019t know what\u2019s changed from last year, but it does seem\nswelteringly hot in the venue, particularly in the Empress Ballroom and Club\nCasbah, where you feel a wall of heat rising to meet you before you\u2019ve even\ndescended the staircase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mindful that much of what I want to see later is in the main\nrooms, we start things gently with a visit to Introducing, where RATS FROM A SINKING SHIP<\/strong>, from\nDerbyshire, are opening proceedings with their rap metal\/punk crossover sound, which\nsounds like a punkier Rage Against The Machine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bristol four-piece KEARNEY\u2019S\nJIG <\/strong>were first up in the Arena after impressing on the Introducing stage\nlast year. I\u2019d never heard them before, but their slightly frantic punk, with\nthe two guitarists and bass player taking turns at vocals, impressed enough for\nme to invest in the six-track EP on sale at their merch stall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Browsing the stalls in the Horseshoe, I liked the noise\nemanating from the Pavilion, and wandered in to catch a few songs by PUNKO! UK<\/strong>, who, if I heard their\nsinger\u2019s banter correctly, come from Benidorm in Spain.  With a hardcore sound somewhere between Dead\nKennedys and a UK82 band, I liked them a lot, but couldn\u2019t find merch of any\ndescription. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the unknown to the familiar, it was time to join HOBO JONES & THE JUNKYARD DOGS<\/strong> in the Casbah. Quite how a skiffle-punk band from Maidstone who play a tea-chest bass, washboard and kazoo have become festival favourites is beyond me, but I\u2019m glad they have. They\u2019re a reminder that punk can be fun, and not-entirely-serious songs like Geldof Is A Moron and Should I Stay Or Should I Go have become a vital part of Rebellion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Time to discover some new-to-me bands, with much of the\nafternoon spent finally catching up with bands that I\u2019ve never seen before.\nFirst up are French Oi! band LION\u2019S LAW<\/strong>,\nwho several  people have recommended, and\nthey\u2019re not wrong. They put on an impressive set of tuneful streetpunk, and are\nanother name added to the \u2018most find out more\u2019 list.<\/p>\n\n\n\nngg_shortcode_0_placeholder\n\n\n\n

Alvin Gibbs is best-known for playing bass with the UK Subs\nand Iggy Pop, but he has branched out on his own by forming ALVIN GIBBS & THE DISOBEDIENT SERVANTS<\/strong>.\nHere Gibbs takes the mic too, and he\u2019s joined by Subs drummer Jamie Oliver and\nRuts guitarist Leigh Heggarty. They\u2019re not a punk band per se, but present\ntheir take on 77 punk, garage rock and glam, and very slick it is too. I must\ncheck out their debut album, Your Disobedient Servant, released earlier this\nyear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

GIUDA<\/strong> are a\nfive-piece from the Italian city of Rome who have played Rebellion before, but\nI\u2019ve always missed them. This time I made sure I saw their teatime set on the\nEmpress stage, and I\u2019m sooooo glad I did. They play an infectious blend of\nanthemic glam rock (dare I compare them to the Glitter Band?) delivered with\nthe punch of early UK punk, and have one of the most charismatic frontmen I\u2019ve\nseen all weekend. Great stuff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SPOILERS<\/strong>, from\nKent, are on the Pavilion stage, are a melodic punk band whose debut album\nRoundabouts came out last year.  A little\npop-punk at times, they also have a tougher edge, and  I add them to my listening list \u2013 the money\nyou\u2019ve set aside for merch won\u2019t go far if you buy everything you like the\nsound of here, sadly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After their main stage set yesterday, RUTS DC<\/strong> are back for an acoustic set, and after packing the Almost Acoustic bar for the last couple of years, thankfully the organisers have seen sense and moved this year\u2019s set to the Opera House. Hopefully they\u2019ll do the same to THE BAR STOOL PREACHERS<\/strong>, who had punters queueing 10-deep to get into their acoustic set on Thursday night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anyhow, back to the Ruts. Don\u2019t Segs, Ruffy and Leigh look\ntiny on the huge stage? But demand to see them is such that the upstairs seats\nof the 2,200-capacity room are opened too, as they play wonderful stripped-down\nversions of songs new and old. They\u2019re just as enjoyable as they were doing\ntheir electric set \u2013 the mark of good songs played by good musicians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

HARD SKIN<\/strong>, a\ncomedy  Oi! band from London, are playing\nin the Pavilion as we head out to the Casbah stage, but the  room is rammed, and I couldn\u2019t get close\nenough to form an opinion on them, one way or another. H.R. FROM BAD BRAINS<\/strong> is rocking the Casbah with a set which seems\nto consist mainly of mellow reggae, with a couple of more hardcore songs thrown\nin for good measure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over in the Empress, the ballroom is filling up for THE BUSINESS EVENT<\/strong>, which sees former members of the South London Oi! band reunited to pay tribute to their singer Micky Fitz, who died of cancer in 2016. Steve Whale, Steve Kent and Micky Drummer are joined by a revolving rota of singers, including Roi Pearce from The Last Resort and Beki Bondage from Vice Squad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Homage was duly paid with classics like Saturday\u2019s Heroes,\nTakers And Users, Hardcore Hooligan, Smash The Discos and Suburban Rebels, as\nthe great man himself looked down on us from a huge Union Flag backdrop. Nicely\ndone \u2013 but it was a shame Al Barr from the Dropkick Murphys didn\u2019t make his\nmuch-advertised appearance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MAID OF ACE<\/strong>, four\npunk-as-fuck sisters from Hastings, are another band who have become synonymous\nwith my rebellion experience, and they were in tremendous form on the Casbah\nstage, smashing their way through songs like Boring, Minimum Wage, and Made In\nEngland. A main stage slot really can\u2019t be too far away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking of which, it\u2019s back to the Empress for the rest of\nthe night, as the East End comes to town in the shape of COCKNEY REJECTS<\/strong>. They\u2019re on blistering form from the off, wheeling\nout big songs like Join The Rejects, East End, I\u2018m Not A Fool, We Are The Firm,\nand the wonderful Bad Man. It\u2019s so hot in here that a bloke behind me keeled\nover, and had to be held up and revived by the two guys behind him. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"

How many bands could follow that? Not many, but fellow\nEastenders COCK SPARRER<\/strong> can, and do.\nLike the Rejects, they\u2019re all about embracing who you are and where you\u2019re\nfrom, and the most encouraging thing about this set is how many younger people\nare here, as well as those who have been following them for 40 years or more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The opening riff of Riot Squad sees the place explode, and\nthe pace doesn\u2019t let for the next 75 minutes, even though most of the band are\nnow in their 60s. It\u2019s a slightly different set to when they last played here\nthree years ago, with the likes of One By One and Gonna Be Alright from the\nexcellent 2017 album Forever freshening up the set. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The latter in particular was one of the best and saddest moments\nof this year\u2019s festival. Singer Colin McFaull, wearing a Rockers England shirt,\nrevealed it was one of the late Kathy Rocker\u2019s favourite songs, and I swear\nthere was something in my eye as her husband joined him on stage to sing along.  Respect, fella.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The home straight saw them remind us all what an array of\ntop-notch tunes they have at their disposal, with Runnin Riot, I Got Your\nNumber, Because You\u2019re Young, Argy Bargy, England Belongs To Me and We\u2019re\nComing Back all prompting huge singalongs. What a band, what a headliner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Saturday\u2019s 6 of the\nbest:<\/strong> Cock Sparrer, Cockney Rejects, Ruts D.C. Acoustic, Maid Of Ace,\nGiuda, Hobo Jones & the Junkyard Dogs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
