The Next Big Thing

"More punk than anything you can name this side of 1978" was the verdict of J. Hammer Esq., a man more than qualified to make it after witnessing The Rigbys (Hazel and Amy) shake down Otto's in New York. "Endearingly Scrappy" said The Scotsman review of their short set in Glasgow recently. Amy Rigby's recently completed latest UK visit saw many highs and lows with one of the highs being Hazel getting a snare drum to use by one Dee Generate (of Eater) in (I think) Wellingburgh - (where dat? I dunno). Anyways, those who did turn out to the shows were trated to the usual high standard of songfare which included the mother/daughter Domino (Big O,Cramps), I Must Not Think Bad Thoughts (X), Mannequin (Wire) and having finally got the chance to hear Amy's Joey Ramone song, I think we can safely conclude that the big guy will be diggin' it up there.
