Rebellion punk festival in Blackpool

[bamalama]

and i know the bass player who is totally anti racist

With all due respect trev i trust the opinions of my german anti-fascist mates more than yours.Anyways i don't care if the bassist says he's anti racist,the band along with other fence sitting bands on that scene are providing an in for the return of fascist politics,under the guise of being non political.
I'd draw your attention to rac...reggae against communism,heh...which as far as i know our "friend" played a part in.He's also been trying to establish himself as a reggae dj in germany and mainland europe.Can ye not see what's going on here?

 

[bamalama]

Nah. Unless i missed it, but i was keeping a close eye on it.

What's the email address butchers?

 

[bamalama]

Oh and just for your info trev,this representative of oi the voice of the working clarse is an md(doctor)back in the us...

 

[butchersapron]

What's the email address butchers?

and i know the bass player who is totally anti racist

I've just read this inane comment again,and ye know what it's really pissed me off.You've come into a discussion that's been going a week or so,accused people of being harsh and introduced the straw man of anti racism,to defend someone from an accusation that was never made.Can you not fuckin read or what?Lets get this straight,nobody accused your pal or anyone else in their shite band of being a racist,alright?
The fact is they are part of a fence sitting scene(within a scene) which does not challenge right wing people/activists at their gigs,because they are "not political",yet they're quite happy to slag of the left or any "progressive" politics.However the drummer is political and has played /is playing with bands who have anti immigrant, anti working class, pro us imperialist lyrics/views.In short he's a right wing cunt,and is well known for it.
These bands are giving fascists access to "the scene"to spread their shit with a nudge and a wink,cos "hey we're all skinheads" and that's all that matters.Still it's your "scene" mate and if you want to bend over and let these people fuck you again that's entirely your business.Try not to misrepresent what i say in future eh?
Rant over

It was the bit through the vintage fair and past the cinema...Hazel O'Connor did a talk and Gary Bushell.

 

[moose]

I saw no tent

 

[CNT36]

It was a tent of the mind.

 

[josef1878]

I saw no tent

I saw no vintage fair!

 

[moose]

I saw a cake stand and some bunting - that was probably it.

 

[kalidarkone]

It was upstairs, past the coffee place...

 

[bamalama]

Sounds more like a tent of shite

 

[CNT36]

I saw no vintage fair!

Twas otherside of the cinema.

3 Chords was a good laugh yesterday. Were you there CNT36? I was down the front for One Way System - that was great. Practically on stage with them. Also enjoyed Maid Of Ace with their enthusiastic Fuzzbox covers etc. Also good tunes in the bar bit played by a bloke who seemed to have my record collection with him. Talking Heads, Patti Smith, Joy Division etc. Good day out. Weather almost held out - just a bit of rain at the end. Not sure I'll make it back today though. They were selling mead by the half pint and I'm now so fucking hungover I can barely type.

 

[CNT36]

I was there. Was a good day. Worked most of it but still caught most of the bands. Was hoping to hit the mead today but have a gig at Tehidy tonight. Fingers crossed i'll be back in time for the Ruts and the late bar.

 

[Voley]

It's good fun at the time, that mead, but fuck me it hurts today. I won't be making it back for the second day but I hope it sells well. Steward I was talking to said sales for today had been better. It'd be good if this became a regular thing.

 

[moose]

We will attempt to haul our arses down there if it's on next year. Punk and mead sounds like a good combination.*




*well it doesn't, it sounds fucking disastrous, tbh

You're right. Still feeling it today. I hope they sold well yesterday. I hope they have another one next year if only to try and actually make it to both days.

 

[bamalama]

Sent rebellion an email about this spivey prick.Anyone get an answer back yet?

they are also on an anti nazi record label who refuse to have anything to do with dodgy bands, what a shame i must stop liking them because the drummer has dodgy records
