Did anyone see this guy support the Stranglers ?
I only know his pisstake of Anarchy In the UK.
The b side is extremely politically incorrect.

Re: Jonny Rubbish
Think there's a Stranglers bootleg with him on, may be Wembley Arena or Albert Hall

FUNNY YOU SHOULD say that, but incredibly, these humorous dudes all told their gags at gigs for The Stranglers: Harry Enfield, Jim Tavare, Robin Williams, Stephen Frost, and Keith Allen – dad of pop chanteuse Lilly Allen!
But there was only one truly ‘alternative’ comedian that needs mentioning here – Johnny Rubbish - a rubbish act, for sure. Also known as John Gatward, a Stranglers fan who got to know Hugh Cornwell, who in turn, became his manager.

From punk comic to pillar of the community
JUST how did an anarchic punk rock comedian and warm-up man for the Stranglers make the leap to a respected pillar of the community and Tory councillor in the well-heeled seaside town of Frinton?
