    From bass player to lead guitarist, singer and last remaining founding member, Steve Diggle has been the driving force keeping Buzzcocks alive since he first met Pete Shelley in 1976. Together they would ignite the Manchester music scene, kickstart indie and become one of the best loved and most influential punk groups of all time. 
     
    Following Shelley's untimely death in 2018, Autonomy is Diggle's definitive inside account of their shared musical legacy and complex friendship through the band's rise, fall, and rise again - from their punk origins supporting Sex Pistols with original singer Howard Devoto to Top of the Pops, the excess of success, break-up, reformation and life beyond bereavement. 
     
    Funny, honest and touchingly philosophical, it is also Diggle's very personal story of working class escape, dreams, redemption and loss - an ultimately heroic survivor's tale from an irrepressible rock 'n' roll spirit.

    THE NEW KALISHNIKOVS :: AK-47 - aka Drones 
    This poem is about the new invention in war, of small arms arsenals - The Drone. Coming on the heels of the 
    former mass produced and used small arm the - Kalashnikov rifle. 
    The similarities of the AK and Drones, for widespread use are their cheapness to build relative to their 
    use - cost benefit. Their individual strike and their reliability, and their 
    effectiveness. 
    In all its guises, it represents a new era in remote 'close contact'. 
    The Drone itself being sent from a remote location and controlled at a remote location, 
    but the target being an individual, small group or military vehicle like the Tank. 
    Drones are fast becoming the choice of weapon in the modern age for battlefield contact. 
    * Absolutely NO A.I. has been used in the creation of this Poem.
