I saw them at the Glasgow School Of Art temporary Students Union building in Renfrew St. around '78/'79, with (possibly) Craig Ferguson on drums and front man Peter Capaldi with a long black coat and a red Gibson SG! I have a distinct memory of Capaldi, in a very darkened venue, hanging on the mic stand with his SG slung round the back, crooning away and then jumping around like a nutter! They had a single out shortly after, as I recall. I remember meeting Peter in the Third Eye Centre cafe in Sauchiehall St, a couple of days after that gig, with my mate Jake Black, (who ended up as The Rev. De Wayne Love in the Alabama 3!) and asking him if I could try out his SG...which he politely declined, explaining that he'd worked in a bar for 6 months to afford to buy it, and wasn't about to let some twat he hardly knew scratch the finish...or words to that effect! And who could blame him!

[@umka2002]

Thank you for sharing this memory:)

[@envisagebgt8078]

It would take him 3 months if worked at ice cream van

I can tell by his dramatic punk note intonations, he must have been an angsty artsy teen/young adult in 20s 😂😊 totally adorable.

[@nickwyatt9498]

Listening to this has just catapulted me back to the Doune Castle, a pub in Shawlands, Glasgow, where everybody from Simple Minds to the Berlin Blondes and Positive Noise started out. There was a Greek restaurant upstairs and if the bands were playing too loud the manager, Nico, would hurtle down the stairs and yell “You make-a the peas jump on the plates!” I vaguely knew Peter and was/am delighted by his subsequent success. But he’s better at acting than singing 😅 !

[@ericrapp3164]

This is the best thing I've read all day. I'm going to be telling everyone I know about "You make-a the peas jump on the plates!" for *weeks*.

[@TheWOLF1947]

He's a GREAT Doctah

[@mordaciousfilms]

I actually like this. It's super weird but if you're like me and you already dig super weird angular post-punk music like Plain Characters, Tactics, or similar... this is super similar. It's strangely catchy and I can def hear The Doctor's voice here, which is neat. :)

[@thesimpsons17]

Dont forget the Late Night Revolutionary Craig Ferguson too!

[@sillygoose635]

less revolutionary, more odd one out

[@chrishart8548]

Peter actually got better looking with age. Looked a bit strange in vicar of dibbly with his crazy hair. Looked dashing as the 12th Doctor.

[@UnchainedEruption]

Well on tv they give him expensive costumes and makeup and hair before every shot.

[@shahani6037]

He definitely aged like a crisp, bold wine ❤❤❤❤❤❤ his smile at age 60 😊 so cute

[@FIXTREME]

Woah! What character was he on the Vicar of Dibbly?! I only know the stupid, dumb blonde and yes yes yes yes yes 😂

[@chrishart8548]

@@FIXTREME he was only a guest character. He was one of Geraldine's. Potential romances

[@holyspacemonkey]

I had a crush on him back in 1988 when The Lair of the White Worm Came out.

[@pebblelive]

I love this vibe omg

[@AnnieWarbux]

Totally Awesome!!!

[@christophcookit6334]

A bandcollege of mine looked like a young capaldi. I wonder if He will look much better too when He is older.

[@chapelpython275]

I found this cause of doctor who but This is sick

[@miffyn1737]

This is cool. Thanks

[@eclecticdog2k901]

I really wish I could understand more than a few of the words 😔 It all comes of not being Scottish, I suppose

[@icequeen917]

Um.....hmn.....as an alumni of 3 punk bands myself, this is....interesting?

[@stringsixxx7684]

I wonder if this is where Jello be offered got his sound

[@Kingsized_Kevin]

Craig Ferguson is the drummer..lol

[@GaryPhelpsII]

Is Craig in this iteration?

[@umka2002]

No, the song was recorded before Craig joined the band.

[@neilmccormick2064]

Dear God , wtf!!!

[@thefonzkiss]

Peter’s right, it was a horrible band.

[@neilmccormick2064]

It's even worse than I'd imagined.

[@umka2002]

Lol why? The song has a great vibe:)

[@FabianMacGintyONeill]

Ah man, this is pretty decent post-punk for a student band. Don't be a downer, you're sounding a bit like Neil from the Young Ones!

[@terrypussypower]

That 2:21 pic looks like the Hellfire Club rehearsal studio entrance....possibly?

[@umka2002]

That's right

[@koilakanthos]

Their drummer is Craig Ferguson....amazing!!!!

[@angiecox8781]

He once drummed for Nico , yes Nico !!

[@DarkComet360]

YES! IT’S MY BOYS BAND!! PETER AND CRAIG!!!

[@hawktalon7890]

You know, I actually like The Dreamboys a lot.

[@nomatophobia]

[@cadet50118]

Thanks for sharing this.

[@luthomaslan24]

Ho my god😂❤️

[@encon7340]

@umka2002 I'm curious,how did you come across this song, and from where?

[@umka2002]

This song, along with two others, was released The Dreamboys on the record in 1980. All three are available on YT they were digitized by fans at one time
