19 year old Siouxsie Sioux at her first ever gig at the 100 Club Punk Special on September 20th 1976. photo taken by Barry Plumber
Siouxsie formed her band The Banshees (at the time consisting of Steve Severin, Sid Vicious, and Marco Pirroni) only a few days before the 100 Club Punk Special after being told by Malcolm McLaren that there was a need for one more band
There was a vacant space for a group, and it was being discussed at Louise’s. Perhaps someone had pulled out. Malcolm was saying, ‘We need another band’, and I volunteered. ‘We’ve got a band.’ And we hadn’t, we spent the night trying to find a band.

since The Banshees had no songs of their own, their set consisted of a 20 minute improvisation based on the Lord's Prayer and a few covers of 'uncool' songs just to infuriate the audience
It was taking the piss out of all the things we hated. Whether
Marco put it in for whatever reason, and me wailing over the top of it, not singing the lyrics but singing ‘Knocking on Heaven’s Door’ to ‘Smoke on the Water’ and ‘The Lord’s Prayer’, and Steve trying to find how to turn his bass on, or something. And Sid with this bull-dozer rhythm, relentless banging.
[...]
We expected to be stopped by outside forces. We didn’t envisage being able to get away with it, really. One of the songs was ‘She Loves You’, and also ‘Young Love’ by the Bay City Rollers. What song do you really hate? What would you like to throw in as a shock tactic? What can we mutilate and destroy? It was all our least favourite things.

The Banshees were meant to split up after the gig but they were asked to play more so Siouxsie and Severin decided to commit to being musicians and asked Kenny Morris and Peter Fenton to come aboard. the rest is punk/goth history!

"woke up in your new apartment in your twin size bed, coffee starting" જ⁀➴♡
dancing in the kitchen while making a meal together.
waiting to hear their key in the door after counting down the minutes and watching the clock for the whole day.
a: “you’re finally home!” b: “told you I would be.”
laying in bed together and talking about your day, each just listen to each other’s stories and enjoying their company.
accepting that clothes will be stolen and not even bothering to call the other out.
a: “are you not going to comment on the shirt?” b: “i’ve given up at this point, my love.”
knowing exactly what music the other would want to listen to or what movie they would want to watch without having to ask.
b: “how did you know?” a: “because I know you better than I know myself.”
