FRANTIC FLINTSTONES What The Hell
The story of The Frantic Flintstones is one that started over 20 years ago. The band was formed by Chuck Harvey in the mid 80s and their initial recordings were released by the fledgling Raucous record label. The success of their first EP led to them being signed by the more established Nervous label and before long the band were touring Europe and Chuck, always happiest when on the road, began building a loyal following that would stay with him throughout his musical career.
Despite numerous line-up changes, the Frantic Flintstones, or the "FF" as they have come to be known, have established themselves as major players in the psychobilly world, and much of this success can be attributed to Harvey. It's not only his song-writing, that has produced some of the genre's best-loved anthems, but also his on-stage charisma. Chuck's approach is minimal, yet his delivery is convincing. When Chuck sings about drugs and booze, you know he is singing from the heart, drawing on his years of dependency and brushes with the law.
With seemingly no end to Harvey's hunger for live work, the band is still touring heavily throughout Europe, and are also venturing to the USA, where a sizeable fanbase awaits. This film takes you back to a time when the band was fairly new, and contains some rare and previously unreleased footage, as well as a short documentary about the band and its infamous founder and leader, Chuck Harvey.

***** yeah
querelle 123 Gazztop played with loads, think we all did back then
michel Guevara Morrissey was doing a tour down here in Sydney, Australia in the early ‘90s. I was so pumped to see him because of the band he had with him which was Gary Gazztop Day, Darrel Higham (Imelda May’s husband) Boz and not sure of drummer’s name.
But......he fucking cancelled the show in the afternoon about 3 hours before they were supposed to play and never returned!!
Gary day. Played bass for lots of bands back in the day. But did start with Frantic.
