Please give a brief history of the band, including current
line up.
In a very absent minded and disturbed June 1990 Boisterous
bounced forward enveloped in beer, piss and half eaten fish suppers. We got
together did a few gigs and recorded the BOOT BAIRNS demo. Over the years
there has been numerous line up changes. Due to marriages, work commitments
and the like we split February 1992 and reformed September 1992. More recordings
were done, gigs etc. Then we all had to pack it in, in April 1995 due to
Baxter (bass) took ill and Noby started on night-shift. So after many years
of pestering from various sources we've raised our ugly heads again.
The line-up now stands as;
Noby - Vocals
Fester - Bass
Lee - Guitar
Daz - Guitar
Pete - Drums
Noby, Daz and Pete are all old BOISTEROUS boys, Lee and Fester are new to the
fold.

Has any band member played in other bands, if so what?
Since the age o f16 we've all been in bands together,
on and off. All of us have played in the same bands except Pete. None of
them really got any further than the drawing board 'coz they weren't really
much cop.
If you could see any band play live, either of the past or
present who would it be?
Noby - Slaughter & The Dogs
Fester - Ruts
Lee - Dead Kennedys
Daz - One Way System
Pete - 4-Skins
What is the Punk/Oi scene like in your area?
There's still a few folk around into the bands/music and
a couple of bands on the go. The scene is healthier than it's been for a
while and as we speak there's a 3 day punk festival on this weekend. Last
November there was a successful all-dayer at the now defunct Riverside in
Newcastle. Probably the most well known local bands are Rampage and Crashed
Out.
Do you think street music will rise again?
Street music oi/punk on Top Of The Pops etc - no! whatever
street music means. Up here kids on the streets listen to techno (street
music?). Anyway punk only got big in the first place because it was fashionable
at the time, once the fad faded the followers of fashion moved onto something
else. We're better off without them! Sorry but punk just ain't trendy no
more.................ma'an.
What is the favourite song (and what band is it by) of each
member of the band?
Noby: Ready Now - Slaughter & The Dogs
Fester: Staring At The Rudeboys - Ruts
Lee: Straw Dogs - SLF
Daz: Out Of Control - Angelic Upstarts
Pete: One Law For Them - 4-Skins

Any final comments?
Ask Joey Deakin!! Boisterous are back on a mission....
to spread the message of having a laugh with songs old and (mostly) new -
come and catch a tune! Lee's got a new bird. Noby's back with his old bag
of bones. Fester still rolls his lass in flour to find her fanny! Daz just
goes for the soapy tit wank these days (his own tits). As for Pete.... he's
still trying to remove the spelks from his dick after the last hole in the
fence he shagged!
