Who would live in a house like this?
Which punk/ post punk drummer changed his name back to his family name in 1976, only at a time of many people taking on stage names, nobody realised?
Just to get this back on topic...

Clue: His family name was never Scabies.
Terry Chimes of the Clash?

He was credited as 'Tory Crimes' on the sleeve of their eponymous first album and was then replaced by 'Topper' Headon. He rejoined the band later under his real name, I think.

Neither of them, even if their real names were Crimes and Black, which I don't know is the case.
