Bad Manners

Bad Manners, composed of vocalist Buster Bloodvessel (born Douglas Trendle), Louis Cook (guitar), David Farren (bass), Martin Stewart (keyboards), Brian Tuitti (drums), Gus Herman (trumpet), Chris Kane (saxophone), and Andrew Marson (saxophone), were one of the many bands to take their inspiration from the Specials and the ska revival movement in England in the late '70s. They quickly became the novelty favourites of the fad through their bald, enormous-bodied frontman's silly on-stage antics, earning early exposure through 2-Tone Records package tours and an appearance in the live documentary Dance Craze.

We are looking forward to a welcoming Bad Manners to the Bapsy Hall Stage for their first time in Winchester in many years!

Support from SKAMAGEDDON - "Just another ska band " I hear you say? Think again; the line up is made up of some incredibly talented players 2 of which play for BAD MANNERS. The powerful 4 part brass section and a rhythm section take no prisoners! You can be sure that we are not just another ska band jumping on the band wagon. (Or are we...?!) Sure, we will play the stalwart standards that we all know and love, but this project will be taking material and reworking it in our own unique way so watch this space..."
