# Very nice!

Edit: wait a moment! It is a gif, but seems to have jpeg artifacts! Hmm...

# Let the speculation desist
for I know little of that which you speak. I'm not very tech savvy and have only just managed to cobble together the scanned drawing.

My only strength lies in the biro.

# Arguably true,
but in this instance, knowledgeable use of photoshop is a bit better than the pen.

# Half Man Half Biscuit is a band
They do many funny songs, though many with plain absurdist lyrics (like the aforementioned Four Skinny Indie Kids). They reference a long of British pop culture, especially from the 80s/90s.

# My favorite tracks by them are
1966 And All That
Joy Division Oven Gloves
With Goth On Our Side
Trumpton Riots

I love "1966 and all that" just for one verse, really. "We sat and decided / as the seasons collided / that our love was fairly utopian / if it wasn't for my pills / my psychiatric bills / and your unreliable fallopian"

# Hahaha great
I am the reason why the people in no. 15 laugh. I am so used to singing wrong lyrics (on purpose) that I often forget how to sing them correctly.
It's the same with malapropisms.

# nice work!
I saw them in December and they were all of the ace!

edit: If I could draw, I'd add the following -

A teenage wannabee metaller who had been dragged along by his parents, who was on the barrier and not pleased about it, as he couldn't handle the crush.

How did I know he was a wannabee? In between the support act and HMHB, he got out a fucking comb and combed his hair!
