The late Jeffrey Lee Pierce from Gun Club told Flexipop! in issue 31 (June 1983) how he went bananas in Amsterdam. ‘I’d taken every imaginable kind of drug that you can find there…We designated it to be our drug binge. They don’t have to drink in Holland because there are so many drugs.’

In issue 26, January 1983, Flexipop! compiled the Complete Guide to Walters and Dennis’ from the comic strip in The Beano. Anti Nowhere League’s Animal was the archetypal Dennis while David Sylvain was the personification of a Walter. A valuable social document…

Adam Ant was on the cover of issue 19 and interviewed by the Flexipop! co-creator Tim Lott, now a celebrated novelist and columnist. Tim was determined not to ask Adam how big his plonker was, but then things started to go wrong. Tits up, in fact.
