Hello everybody,
I read your comments about the band who do not come to play, so what? I really like to hear Crass songs live and when I have a wish for an additional band: Charlie with his subs!!! The Subs are on Tour forever, so they will play this evening too; and maybe Charlie will pull down the stage from Eve when he sings ….does she sucks. Very happy to see everybody in november. regards.

It’s a shame the Mob won’t be there – I’d love to see them, Flux, Subhumans, Rubella Ballet or Zounds on the bill – who cares where the support band has played the night before? The more, the merrier.

Forget the terms,politics,money or whatever else.Bloody egos.Ill tell ya.The gig is about the fans is it not? Fuck all the bullshit everyone, and play for us.I understand its Steve’s last time and all that but it is also ours.Get on the blower Steve and just ask them to play.I can understand them being worried about ticket sales though if people are short of cash and can only go to one.It seems also strange that The Mob would book another date so close to one they have already confirmed.But hey thats life.

Agree with that – I think we need to be careful on the one hand and not make too big a deal about it but think it’s totally crap on the other hand to reject a band on some career rock nonsense about when a band can or can’t play – who makes these rules? I thought the punk scene was about freedom not restriction – so yeah get em back on the bill is best I’d say – all seems very elitest otherwise – glad you are all still mates about it too which is more important.

Hi Steve

I too am very disappointed that The Mob couldn`t do your gig. The fact that you invited them and that they were willing to play shows mutual appreciation, also the fact that you are friends with them: I would have expected a better negotiation. I was coming over from Denmark to see BOTH shows and I think that other Mob fans were going to do the same: I think that they would played a terrific set with you and I am sad that you couldn`t come up with a better agreement.I was also looking forward to hearing the old Crass songs again !
I think its a nice gesture that you are offering people who bought tickets to see the Mob their money back. What would be even better would be if you made your apologies, everyone makes mistakes and get The Mob back on the bill !
