About Me
GLASGOW AYRSHIRE PUNK COLLECTIVE WAS STARTED IN 2007 WITH THE AIM OF PROVIDING TOP D.I.Y. PUNK GIGS AT AFFORDABLE PRICES IN VENUES WHERE THE PUNKS WERE IN CONTROL AND NOT RIP-OFF PROMOTERS AND FASCISTIC OVERBEARING BOUNCERS. PUNK FOR PUNKS NOT THE BUSINESSMEN AS FLUX OF PINK INDIANS ONCE SAID. SINCE 2007 THE COLLECTIVE HAS PUT ON GIGS BY BANDS INCLUDING- DISCHARGE, SOCIAL PARASITES, CITIZEN FISH, ACTIVE MINDS, THE WANKY'S, THE BLAME (FROM U.S.A), Z.A.T. (FROM ITALY), TOXIC WASTE, DOGSFLESH, DOGS ABUSE, THE FUCK-UPS, HAPPY SPASTICS, CONSTANT FEAR, CONSTANT STATE OF TERROR, OI POLLOI, MEINHOF, GAUNT, TOTAL CHAOS (FROM U.S.A), AUSLANDER, DOWN TO KILL, OVERSPILL, SAD SOCIETY, ACID TONGUE, CEASEFIRE, CROSSFIRE, SPOUTMOUTH, MURDERBURDERS, HIROSHIMA BLACKOUT, GLOBAL PARASITE, ANTI-VIRUS, THE FIEND, TOXIK EPHEX, SWINE, ONE MAN DOWN, THE DRAGGED AND LOADS MORE WHO'S NAME'S ESCAPE MY DRINK ADDLED BRAIN AT THE MOMENT. THE PEOPLE INVOLVED IN THE COLLECTIVE ARE- BRIAN, BOB, BAZ, JAMES, MARIE, JOHNATHAN, PADDY & WATTY, BUT THIS COLLECTIVE BELONGS TO EVERYONE WHO WANTS TO BE INVOLVED. FUCK ELITISM, THERE SHOULD BE NO US AND THEM IN THE PUNK SCENE, WE'RE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER. THE G.A.P.C. IS FOR ALL THE PUNX, NOT JUST A SELECT FEW, SO GET YER SLEEVES ROLLED UP AND JOIN IN. OH, AND FOR THE RECORD WE NEVER HAVE, AND NEVER WILL DO PAY TO PLAY GIGS (DESPITE SOME WANKER SPREADING RUMOURS TO THE CONTRARY). SO IF YA WANT TO DO A GIG FOR US IN GLASGOW THEN GIVE US A SHOUT ON THIS PAGE....
DON'T LET THEM SELL YOU YOUR OWN CULTURE.
D.I.Y. IS THE ONLY WAY TO GO.
IF WE OWN THE MEANS OF PRODUCTION, THE FRUITS OF OUR OWN CREATIVITY THEN WE WILL BE ONE STEP CLOSER TO CONTROLLING OUR OWN LIVES AND DESTINIES.
