A CLASSIC band that has changed its name on an annual basis is preparing to visit Reading.
Spizzenergi, previously known as Athletico Spizz 80, Spizzoil and The Spizzles, among others, came to fame in 1980 with their single Where’s Captain Kirk? The hit regularly crops up in lists of the best Indie singles ever, including Mojo magazine’s list of the 50 best punk rock singles of all time.
The band is led by vocalist/guitarist Spizz and alumni include Lu Edmunds (The Damned/P.I.L), and Kevin Armstrong (David Bowie and Iggy Pop).
They have supported most of the iconic punk bands Siouxsie, Clash, Damned and headlined many tours/gigs including the 40th Anniversary of the original 100 Club punk festival, Rebellion and Undercover punk festivals in 2016.
They will be coming to The Face Bar in Chatham Street on Saturday, November 19.
Starting at 8pm, this will be a chance to see the current line-up.
Support comes from Voodoo Radio, and Violet Origin.
Tickets cost £14, and can be found by searching for Spizzenergi Face Bar on www.wegottickets.com.
