It's been just over a week since the Yorkshire coast was THE place to be for a full lineup of punk legends!
It certainly feels like festival season is already under way, even though we’re still munching our way through leftover Creme Eggs! The Undercover Festival, Manchester Punk Festival and Scarborough Punk Fest have all taken place over the last couple of weeks, helping us get warmed up for Rebellion in just a few months time.
Opening the day up was West Midlands hardcore band Face Up.
Nottinghamshire’s Hung Like Hanratty delighted their fans with a typically exuberant set.
Punk musician turned author John Robb was on stage with band Gold Blade.
The legends that are Ruts DC never disappoint, putting on a storming set for enamoured fans.
Scottish New Wave bad The Rezillos were up next, followed by the Anti Nowhere League…
And then to top off an incredible day, Buzzcocks showed they have never lost the knack for delivering pure punk perfection to a thrilled Scarborough crowd.
And that was just day 1!
