Pete Shelley

Shame - was listening to their hits CD in the car only this morning, after seeing them at Nottingham's Splendour Festival last year. Excellent band.
 
Most of the Punk revolution included some aggression and tried to portray a frightening image.

Pete and the Buzzcocks never seemed shocking to me and although they were fast paced the tunes still had a kind of melody other punk bands lacked.

I even found myself humming the tunes.

RIP.
 
Unexpectedly saw them play last Summer at some shit festival I was working at. They were the best thing that happened that weekend.

RIP
 
That's a great shame RIP Pete. Great band back in the day. Does anyone know what was wrong with him to pass so relatively young ?
