(By John Togher, Bang Your 'Ead 'Ere (issue 4), August 2002)

The first band to get up the council representatives noses are Kermitz Middle Finger with their speed punk metal, expletives, necrophiliac song "everybody do…the necrophiliac…the Incest Rock" and decapitated Kermit the Frog heads laid religiously around the stage. Although their set was littered with swearing, especially aimed at some morons who'd broke into their cars the night before, you cant take nothing away from the music, with 'Spy Song', 'Rearview' and 'My Town' and subtle attack at the inbreeding of certain people in Wigan, there's no denying that singer and song writer John Parry is a talented and a clever and witty lyricist. The special treat promised for the festival was a punk cover of George Formby's 'When I'm cleaning windows' complete with the Muppets themed Animal on drums and backing vocals. They even had some parents impressed!
