I was up there today Stephen, looks like around the time you were there, I bet we passed each other as I walked back up to see “Busking Joe”, a few of the punks that were there in the video were there when I was, it was a little busier too, I’d passed him as he was setting up as I was parked further up. I couldn’t make it last year as Brazilica Samba Festival in Liverpool was on on the Saturday, same this year and I can’t manage both so close at the minute. So, the time before that it was on would have been 2019 as 2020/21 it wasn’t on due to Lockdown and it seemed a lot busier then, seen a few faces from 2019 today that I’d taken photos of too.

Couple of 'punks' hanging around, the ones outside the pubs looked more like BNP members to me. Where was the 'rebellion' and more poiniently against what were they rebelling against? In my punk days (hay days I hasten to add) so, late 70's early 80's we were initially against the 'frumpy/archaic' establishment then later more about 'peace and freedom'. Get down to London, in droves, and make our voices heard, that'd be a bit closer to a rebellion. What's the point of going to Blackpool?
@audiocoffee

sun and fun? I expect punks to be a little more anarchic and anti-things. having their hair spiked was a symbol of their stance against stuffy hair-do's and the likes. piercings were the thing (some lads in my class at school were soundly outed by the headmaster because they really did pierce their ears with safety pins during the summer holiday. they did it at the start of the long break so that they could wear studs on their return in the Sept.) aye, the 70's was the era for punks, Mary Quant, and general anarchy - and I ignored most of it 🤣
