Most of these haven't really got owt to do with the Bunker, but hey, its my website.
My big red sports car....
Day time telly
This is what I used to watch when I wasn't down the bunker, cos it was all that was on during the day in the early eighties.

The Bunker still exists of course, albeit in a totally differant form than it was at Green Terrace School. Here is the Bunkers website.

Tommy O's Vox Pop Adventures
I love this piece of utter nostalgia. Tommy, resident Bunker DJ and Dub Warrios bass player (we will remember them) shot these head and shoulder interviews with various dodgy haircuts speaking to camera and pretending to be shy. Highlight: "My name is Alan Christie, and I am a mass murderer, so... AAAARRRRGGHHH". And Holty's haircut.Priceless. No offence with the Dub Warriors comments if you are reading this Tommy.

PIL interview on Tyne Tees Telly
Featuring a bleep out in the Peter Reid league from Jah Wobble. Chris Cowie gets another gob full. He must have hated punks.
No Elvis, Beatles or the Rolling Stones....
I HATE the Rolling Stones, always have always will. Big coporate marketing vehicle for a load of nice boys who have a board meeting on stage every half decade. This clip shows the reason they refused to release Rock n Roll Circus until a few years ago, because The Who played this piece of weird genius and blew the Stones out of the water. They were too embarrassed to show their mediocre performance along with these oiks from Shepards Bush tearing them apart. 7 minutes long, buty keep with it. Patented Exploding British Drummer indeed.
