UK Ska Legends BAD MANNERS have announced their Greatest Hits Tour. Fronted by the larger than life Buster Bloodvessel, Bad Manners have a huge set of non-stop pop ska classics – Lip Up Fatty, Special Brew, Walking In The Sunshine, Lorraine, Just A Feeling, My Girl Lollipop, Inner London Violence and the ultimate knees up Can Can.
Bad Manners quickly became the favourites of the Ska movement through their wild on-stage antics, sheer joviality and obnoxious amounts of energy. They were at their peak most popular during the late 1970s and early 1980s, during a period when other ska revival bands, such as Madness, The Specials, The Beat and The Selecter filled the charts. The band spent a staggering 111 weeks in the UK Singles Chart between 1980 and 1983. One of the main reasons for their notoriety was bald outsized frontman, Buster Bloodvessel whose wild onstage antics and eccentric behavior resulted in them being banned from Top of the Pops
Keeping the flame alive, UK originators Bad Manners are ensuring ska remains as strong as ever not only as a heritage movement, but also one attracting new fans. Expect a set full of chartbusters, sing-a-longs and one of the best ska parties around as Buster and the boys deliver a feel-good show.
