Whipping boy

Still worth a few quid though, surprisingly!

There was someone wearing a Whipping Boy tee shirt at Truck Festival at the weekend. The first time I think I’ve ever seen one of their tees.

I used to have a fantastic Whipping Boy t-shirt but I lost it somewhere along the way. Think I left it at a LARP in Liverpool. :frowning:

Just discovered this band. Very good aren’t they

Yeah. Heartworm is an amazing album.

Just scrolled back through this thread and seen that I’ve liked a bunch of posts but not replied until now.

Saw them at The Venue in Edinburgh and they were incredible. Yer Man did climb as high as he could but it was a pretty low ceiling in that place. There was a real feeling that they were going places despite/because of how intense some of their stuff is. A real shame that it all fell apart.

Ngl those shows kind of killed their aura for me, Fergal just came off as a bit of a lout, his social media presence at the time didn’t help either, seemed to be going down a rabbit hole shall we say

The singer was always a bit nuts. A friend of mine tells a story of Fergal getting expelled from school for painting a statue of Jesus’ hands red. :sweat_smile:

Also, I’m really bad at self promotion.
