ANTI NOWHERE LEAGUE

The Anti-Nowhere League is a UK Punk band formed in 1980, by lead singer Animal and rhythm guitarist Magoo, with Bones on Drums and Baggy Elvy on Bass. Their first gig was at Tunbridge Wells, on the day of the annual carnival, at which they promptly got arrested. This led to their first press coverage with the local newspaper describing their gig as a ‘cacophany of noise’. In 1981, Gooky (who left the same year), Hopper and Clive “Winston” Blake came in on Lead Guitar, Drums and Bass respectively, although Hopper was quickly replaced with PJ (‘Persian John’) (real name Djahanshah Aghssa).
