That was certainly my plan! :wink:

Looking forward to a bit of Nik Turner too (though not my vocalist of choice by a long shot). Will certainly put an alternative slant on proceedings...

Great discussion here. :) Having been on marches (admittedly, not in London) I can confirm that the violence mostly only starts when police instigate it in order to intimidate and control the protesters. This is also my experience. And it was a hell of a lot worse when the Plod didn't have to worry ...

I'm sure it was free. Had it been free, I'm sure I would have obtained one actually at the gig, rather than having to get one second hand later. I got mine for free at the Leeds Uni Refectory gig.

i spoke to danny (horrigan/mass) - the singer from salvation - after the last sisters leeds gig and he was saying he'd love to play again, but logistically it's quite tricky as some of them live at the opposite ends of the uk... it sounds feasible to me that if they were to pull it together for a g...
