Not Just Bits of Paper

Definitely the best book I've seen on the Anarcho punk scene. It was so good to read all those personal memories of gigs, fanzines and friendships forged in an era when we were all so desperate for change. This beautiful book tells part of that story !
Colin ‘Colsk’ Latter – Flux of Pink Indians

In the eighties the world was seen in black and white. This book’s tenth year anniversary edition opens a world of possibilities. It brings back all sorts of memories of gigs I was at, but also tinged with sadness for the gigs that I missed.

I know the book is called "Not Just Bits Of Paper" but there's a whole lot of bits of paper in here that I had a hand in creating, and I'm extremely glad that Mickey ‘Penguin’ and Greg have gone to so much trouble to hunt the bits of paper down and look after it all. This stuff changed my life and continues to do so. Thanks so much for helping keep it all together.
Mark Wilson – The Mob

We have our own words, scrawled on bits of paper smudged with some grimy hope. Angry chords waver
out from the broken cassette-players – and every now and again a curious prisoner comes out for a
look and never returns.
Tony Drayton – Ripped & Torn / Kill Your Pet Puppy fanzines

A series of recollections, memories, imagined dreams perhaps from the collective memories of those who lived through the punk and anarcho-punk years. Tales recalled of times past and a glorious tribute to the bands and the crowds who made the eighties so special for so many of us.
