ON THIS DAY ... in 1990 - THE WIGS

25 photos of The Wigs at the Bull & Gate, 16th March 1990

THE WIGS - DISCOGS

I’m currently re-scanning all of my photos of The Wigs in case Keith needs any photos for his next book, and while going through these negs my ever-shrewd eyes noticed the band appeared to change shirts during the gig, and Mungo’s hair grew at least three inches longer! Now I’m not saying this didn’t happen, but you can appreciate my scepticism. I recall as a child my sister had a doll that she loved because if you pressed a button in its back its hair grew substantially, so it’s possible Mungo was designed by the same people, but he heroically escaped from the factory to live a life of freedom! Regardless of what has happened I am now going to have to sort these all out. I particularly like the fact I have something I rarely captured - bands watching bands. You can see members of Vicious kiss and constant Wigs fan Chris (Hagar/WAGTEY/Melt) enjoying themselves.
