Bad Manners (50th Anniversary Tour) at The Brickyard, Carlisle

Bad Manners, featuring vocalist Buster Bloodvessel, were at the forefront of the ska revival movement in England in the late 70s.

They quickly became the novelty favourites of the fad through their bald, enormous-bodied frontman’s silly on-stage antics, earning early exposure through 2-Tone Records package tours and an appearance in the live documentary Dance Craze.

In the early 80s, they had many U.K. hits including “Ne-Ne Na-Na Na-Na Nu-Nu,” “Lip Up Fatty,” “Special Brew,” and “Can Can.” By the mid-80s, the ska craze was over but the band have been on tour ever since, making people dance all over the world.

Now in their 50th year and no signs of stopping, Buster and the Bad Manners boys can regularly be found touring across the UK, Europe, Central,South & North America, Japan, New Zealand & Australia.

Get your boots on, it’s time to party Bad Manners style.
