BMX Bandits Formed in Bellshill in 1985 by Duglas T Stewart (Pretty Flowers) - the band was
so-named as Stewart didn't expect them to last more than one gig - the BMX Bandits
soon became core members of the 'C86' movement...

...Every
time they came on stage they would have a different line up with lots of
cameos from Teenage Fanclub members, or Eugene Kelly, or John McCusker or
various other luminaries of the Glasgow scene...
...They
mean so much that I got a BMX Bandits tattoo put on my arm 5 years ago (I
would hazard a guess that I am the only person in the world with one)...
