| http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Flag_(band) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rollins_Band Not everyone's cup of tea, and not mine for sure... but I think he is a great choice for the unenviable task of "being Malcolm"

| Yes, a very "committed" performer, is our Henry. I never really liked the Rollins Band, although obviously I have a place in my heart for Black Flag, but when I saw him years back doing his spoken word stuff he was terrific, and very, very funny. I've already bought my tickets anyway. |

| To all of you who missed this... ...baaaad move. I arrived late and missed a few acts, but UK Subs, Misty In Roots, The Damned, Tom Robinson and The Ruts was worth the tenner, several times over, before even considering the good cause angle. Rollins was indeed an inspired choice btw. Nice to see oggs again, and meet Mrs oggs. Was anyone else there?

| Hi Riccardo, Blimey - I ended up replying to the wrong page of the thread there! Very good indeed (Misty were the best of the acts you missed). Managed to get the last tube back in the end, which was nice. Only problem was that all the photos I took came out horribly - apart from the one of you! |
