North London Boys Done Good
Eater were one of the early punk acts formed in North London, their name came from a Marc Bolan lyric from the song 'Suneye'. The ages of the band member at the time ranged from about 15 - 17 years of age, which I guess wasn't bad when you think that they played with the likes of The Damned, Slaughter & The Dogs, G.B.H.and for their first gig they managed to play Manchester's Holdsworth Hall with The Buzzcocks as well as many more at places like The Roxy Club....not bad for a band in their teens!
