BAGGY No. 1
Trigger
Bass Guitar / Unsubtle Wailing
Often praised for his can’t do attitude, Trigger studied bass guitar at St. Winnifreds and was often forced to wear a pinafore in order to sing in the choir.
The Madchester tribute band
LIVE AND LOUD!
LIVE MUSIC
GOOD TIMES
DODGY DANCING
It’s Madchester, innit?
Every so often, a tribute band comes along with breathtaking skill, enthusiasm and musicality. Until that happens, you’ll just have to put up with The Baggys.
Next gig : The Victoria INN
28th Nov
It’s official
Victoria Inn – Westbury-on-Trym.
There will be choons and mild swearing.
“It was awfully loud and the drummer said a rude word.”
From our gig poster
“The angry one frightened me with his sexual dancing, and the fat one hurt my ears.”
From our gig poster
“Proud winner of 16 noise abatement orders.”
From our gig poster

28th Nov – victoria inn w-o-T
Somehow, after the last performance at this lovely pub, which involved shameless bribery, swearing, and band members forgetting they had to go on stage, we have been asked back. A quick trip down the pawn shop to get instruments back and a meeting with our old friends at the noise abatement department and we’re all sorted.
Not only that, we’ve been learning new things, like which way up to hold the instruments, why we shouldn’t plug the bass player into the mains (no matter how convincing his arguments are) and why young people may take exception to having their melons twisted. It’s all good man…
Who let us out?
The Baggys celebrate the baggy, brilliant, gloriously untidy sounds of late-80s and early-90s Madchester.
Expect the tunes you remember, the dancing you’d rather forget, and a healthy disregard for our own importance.
Manchester classics. Questionable dancing. Genuine live music.
Baggyographies
The people responsible. Names, instruments and questionable life stories coming soon.
BAGGY No. 2
Mungo
Lead Singer / Guitar / Frontman
The only one in the band who doesn’t look at his shoes, Mungo’s startling approach to guitar and his x-rated vocals single him out as most likely to be arrested during a gig.
BAGGY No. 3
TinTin
Drums / Backing Vocals
Plays the drums because in the early days, the band kept losing drummers. He figured sitting down all gig would be a nice rest. Says it’s nice to play with Baggys cos it makes a change not being the talentless one.
BAGGY No. 4
our kid
Guitar / Keyboard
Through his musical journey, Our Kid has owned and played many different guitars and keyboards. He says he still hasn’t found ones that work properly. Lives by the adage “It’s a poor musician who doesn’t blame his tools”.
Photographic evidence
Proof that this really happened, despite what the witnesses say.
