NEWPORT'S MUSICAL LIFE

EDM number 72 in 1996-97, proposed by Paul Flynn on 28/10/1996.

That this House applauds the prophetic article in the New York Times that hails Newport, Gwent, as the home of an exceptionally vibrant musical life which is likely to become the 'new Seattle' in the growing recognition of the top quality of Newport groups including 60ft Dolls, Flyscreen, Dererro, Hobgoblin, Juncture, Novocain, Rollerco, Give Me Memphis, Armstrong, Mumbo Jet, Disco, Five Darrens, $2 Hooker, Jester, Ninja, Swerve and Choketeens.

This motion has been signed by a total of 35 MPs.
