Desperate Bicycles
The Desperate Bicycles were an English punk band who released a series of independent recordings in the late 1970s and inspired many other bands to do likewise. The Desperate Bicycles pioneered the do-it-yourself ethic of punk, adopting a proselytising role exemplified by their ardent exhortation: "it was easy, it was cheap - go and do it!". The group have been described as "DIY's most fervent evangelists".〔
==History==
The Desperate Bicycles formed in March 1977 "specifically for the purpose of recording and releasing a single on their own label".〔Liner-notes, “The Medium was Tedium” single, June 1977.〕 The band initially consisted of Nicky Stephens (keyboards), Roger Stephens (bass), Danny Wigley (vocals), Mel Oxer, (drums) and Paul LeClerc (guitar).〔‘Desperate Bicycles’ (article) by Graham Lock, ''New Musical Express'', 14 October 1978.〕 The band's name derives from a passage in J. B. Priestley’s 1930 novel ''Angel Pavement'':〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Literary Rock Band Names )〕 In October 1978 vocalist Danny Wigley expressed the motivation driving the Desperate Bicycles' independent stance: “The biggest hurdle is just ''believing'' you’ve still got some control over your life, that you ''can'' go out and do it”.〔
