Here is part 2 of Nitro-Retro's tribute to Berkeley, California's late-80's mod heroes, The Birminghams!
Not only have I digitize another Birminghams tune to share, but I've discovered & scanned a bunch of old Birminghams flyers I kept from the late 80's. (click on the flyers to see the enlarged versions). I drew the caricature of Bart Davenport and The Birminghams in the above flyer back in 1988. Anyone remember this one?
I have many fond memories of my band, Los Creeple Peeple playing shows with The Birminghams. For such young dudes at the time, those guys could rock.
Most of you know that Bart and Xan have both gone on to enjoy quite successful music careers, but here they are in their early days. Enjoy!
