about
The Scissor Fits were a post-punk English band founded in Hounslow in 1978. They are best known for their classic DIY punk single "I Don't Wanna Work for British Airways", which was recorded before they had appeared in public. A part-time member and occasional manager was Mike Alway, later famous for his A&R work with Cherry Red Records and el. The band comprised Nick East (vocals), Simon Ives (bass), Colin Roxborough (rhythm), Bud Drago (drums) and Vic Watson (lead) in the early days. When Drago returned to his native US he was replaced by drummer Pete Garrard. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
