Gear- Live On Music: Response
Newington Green’s punk heroes take time off from gigging in just about every conceivable area to play a brilliant live session and chat exclusively to Ian Camfield.
Gear are a band very much trying to keep the punk ethic alive having spent most of the past couple of years touring solidly playing venues up and down the country and even free ones out of the back of vans.
A couple of highly limited singles sparked serious interest with those in the know and secured Gear a long stint as touring buddies with the legendary Buzzcocks. Chatting to Ian Camfield they told him about touring with punk legends, their long overdue debut album and using a drill as part of their live set. [listen]
