GSH - takes me back to the first Pheonix fezzie @ Stratford upon Avon and also the Artists Against Apartheid gig @ Clapham Common 20 years ago (Boy George got bottled off!) where we saw him, superb both times. Heron was always a good draw with the live crowd, and far superior to Haircut 100.

Isterness - Yes - I remember Boy George being bottled off - I was there! In fact, I got steamed that day - lost everything and almost my life as I stupidly tackled the steamers who took it upon themselves to pick me up off the ground and throw me across the crowd. They were never caught and I got my bag back eventually with nothing in it of course. I was so happy though as the bag was a vintage 40's number sent all the way from the US from my Dad who was living there at the time. That was all that mattered really and the fact I didn't injure anyone on my inadvertant foray into trying to fly!

…… black and Irish, same thing- ask Gils Dad.
The “Common Sense Party“- that’s what I’m talking about.
“We walked on the moon, you be polite.”
God damn it, they call it Democracy- government of the people, by the people, for the people. Then they create an elite - the rich elite - on one side, where money buys everything, and the poor - with very little to buy anything - on the other.
Cool!
But, he could do with a good hair cut;-)
