The Bromley Contingent & The Birth of Punk Rock BROMLEY HISTORY

The Bromley Contingent (thus named because that's where they lived), was Arguably a Key Ingrediant In the Birth of the British Punk Rock Phenomenon 1976. Punk77 writes: 'While the music and image of punk was being formed by McLaren / the Sex Pistols and Vivien Westwood's clothes there were two other groups of people who would contribute to the scene. One was the loose pool of musicians like Mick Jones, Tony James and various members of the Damned and Clash etc who would be sparked into action by the Pistols and a group of fans who would come to be associated closely with the Sex Pistols many of whom would themselves form bands as the Pistols roller coaster trundled on. This group of fans would come to be known as 'The Bromley Contingent' and featured among others Siouxsie, Debbie, Soo Catwoman, Simon Barker, Sharon, Tracey, Billy Idol, Steve Severin to name a few and lovingly described in 'The Boy Looked At Johnny' by Burchill / Parsons as 'a posse of unrepentant poseurs, committed to attaining fame despite the paucity of talent other than being noticed; achieving their aim by displaying themselves in a manner meticulously calculated to kill.' Praise indeed!' Info Credit and Read More at: http://www.punk77.co.uk/groups/bromle... #thebromleycontingent #bromleyhistory #bromley #punkrock
