Artefact

Fanzine
Buzzcocks
1977

This is an odd one - Kids Stuff fanzine originates from Chessington, Surrey. However, this is almost a Manchester special
Apart from the picture on the cover, there is a review of the Pistols at the Screen on the Green which which focusses almost completely on the Buzzcocks appearance.
There is also a review of the Manchester scene that namechecks lots of bands written by one 'Steve Morrisey" - could it be?
There's a great quote in that bit, Johnny Rotten arrives in Collyhurst at the Circus for the Anarchy tour gig and asks "is this a tough area" to which Howard Devoto replies "Yeah, around here people walk about in their underpants".

“Kids Stuff was the fanzine of a friend of mine, Alastair Collins, and yes, it was that Steve Morrisey!”
