Description
I was born and raised in Britain and was in my teenage years when Punk Rock first began. My children were a little shocked, but very impressed that I saw many punk bands play live, including the Sex Pistols.
The Marquee was the place to go, all famous bands of today, like The Rolling Stones, The Who, Police, Boom Town Rats, Jethro Tull, Generation X, The Stranglers, The Pretenders, XTC, The Jam, to name but a few, all played there. The changing room in the Marquee was covered in graffiti and looked more like a cell than anything else, but it was the venue to be at when you were just starting out.
The Marquee originated on Oxford Street as a Jazz and skiffle club, but from 1964 - 88 it moved to Wardour St, in Soho and become a rock and punk club. After than it moved to Charing Cross Road and eventually closed in 1996,
