Never forget what the Nazis did. Never forget the right wing facist bootlickers out there in all of our communities right now. Stand up against them & those attracted to them & call them out. Never let Nazis again, ethnic cleanse a race that they dislike for no other reason than they just can.

Really shocked to hear of the passing of Eddie Garrity (Edweena Banger) former member of Slaughter & The Dogs and The Nosebleeds. He and I pictured here with his friend at Rebellion 2022, as we reminisced about a famous gig we were both at. RIP Eddie, a huge loss to the Manchester Music Scene.

I’m a huge fan of Girls In Synthesis the best live band I’ve seen since PIL in 1978. Very few that can bring such an intense, soundscape to their live shows like this band. I’m a bit of a collector too 😉 #girlsinsynthesis #shotfrombothsides #postpunk #pil
