Steve Ignorant’s Last Supper – Live, Perth, WA

We’re feeling a bit mixed-up about this, but hey! much respect for the man nevertheless.

Re-threading CRASS anarcho-rant without Penny, neither Eve nor Gee and the rest of the old Dial House crew, seems to be rather sacrilegious, but this is CRASS’ vocalist and working class hero Steve Ignorant re-living the days; with a cracking band behind him – featuring Gizz Butt (guitar ‚Äì Destructors, English Dogs, Janus Stark, The Prodigy, The More I See), Bob Butler (bass ‚Äì The Tone, Schwartzneggar), Spike T Smith (drums ‚Äì The Damned, Conflict, Killing Joke, Morrissey) and Carol Hodge (vocals – Bad Taste Barbies, Synco, Electraglide).

Would I go see the man and hear the songs in the hands of a straight-ahead, snappy punk-rock band (instead of helter-skeltery art-punk CRASS used to be)? You bet.

Now, do sing-along:

Do we owe Steve a living?
Of course we do! of course we do!
Do we owe Steve a living?
Of course we fakking do!
