Punk The First Time.
Ramones: Johnny; Tommy; Joey; Dee Dee.
It’s said we always remember our ‘first time’: first kiss (tick); first date (tick); first foreign trip (tick – it wasn’t on the SS Uganda!); first car (tick); first gig (tick) …..
First punk gig, though? Hmmmnn?
Well, until I did a little research for this post (we don’t just throw these things together, you know) I thought I could remember the first one…

Spunkies
Fairy lights in Scotland went by many names depending on the area. Some examples are: spunkies, will-o-the-wisp, pinkets, ignis faluus, and more. The word “spunkie” is thought to come from the word “Sponk.”
“SPUNK , SPUNKE , SPONK , s . 1. A spark fire , or small portion of ignited matter , S.”“
A very small fire is called a spunk of fire”
An Etymological Dictionary of the Scottish Language. Vol. 2 by Jamieson, J. (1841)
People still argue on where they come from; some describing them as the souls of some sort of dead, some say they are more fairy than ghost, while others simply dismiss them as the spontaneous ignition of marsh gasses.
(Title: Ignis fatuus / Th. Nast. Abstract/medium: 1 prints : wood engraving.)
Spunkies and Pinkets are the spirits of unbaptized children, but Willo’ the Wisp is often a usurer who has hidden gold, or an unjust man who has moved his neighbours’ boundary stones, or in some stories, a man who has been too clever for the Devil, and can get entry into neither Heaven nor Hell.’
The Fairies in Tradition and Literature by Katharine Mary Briggs (1967)
No matter what the origin, they typically hold the same role; leading people astray. In the forest, people typically describe thinking the lights are for a distant building and so heading towards it, while others seem to be curious or enraptured by the strange lights. If the person followed, they are lead somewhere to kill them, such as a swamp to drown in or a cliff to fall from.
“Willy and the Wisp, he is a fiery devil, and leads people off their road in order to drown them, for he sparks sometimes at our feet, and then runs before with his candle, as if he were two or three mile before us…”
Ancient and modern history of Buck-haven in Fife-shire by Merry Andrew at (1793)
On the ocean, they trick sailors into thinking they are heading towards a port, when instead it is a random shoreline.
“…many a good boat has Spunkie drowned; the boats coming to land in the night-time, they obsere a light off the land, and set upon it and are drown’t.”
Ancient and modern history of Buck-haven in Fife-shire by Merry Andrew at (1793)
So essentially, what it comes down to is that it does not matter their origin, just do not follow them.
(The Child sees the Will o’ the Wisps. (1913))
That Bards are second-sighted is nae joke,
And ken the lingo of the sp’ritual folk;
Fays, Spunkies, Kelpies, a’, they can explain them,
And even the very deils they brawly ken them
“The Brigs Of Ayr” Inscribed to John Ballantine, Esq., Ayr.
1786

The Rezillos have been on my list for fucking years and Fay Fife has such a great voice, kinda like a Scottish Justine Frischmann, like the whole band's solid - quite Vibrators honestly, hardly inventive but enjoyable and good at what they do - but her songs definitely stand out.

Movie Reviews:
Kiarra3130: **This movie brings two female specimen together to make the ultimate cheering squad. It strays from tradition and makes something new and rules out the cliche of _”white girls” V. “black girls”_. It is a movie worth watching.**
Andre Gonzales: Nice comeback on this movie compared to the 2nd movie. Almost as good as the 1st one. I didn’t like it at first till she was forced to go to a new school. Better comedy and a way better storyline in this one.

¡Eh! que Rezillos eran muy buenos, con dos álbumes - uno de estudio y otro en directo- espléndidos, obligatorios, pero creo que las cosas tienen un momento que es poco menos que imposible superar (de su LP “Zero” de 2015 mejor no hablar). Ahora se anuncia que vienen de gira.
Viendo este “Top of The Pops” en un programa Top of The Pops de 1978, tal vez se pueda encontrar en el vestuario y movimientos de Fay Fife más de una clave de Tessa de Zombies.
