Crass concert at The Trades Club in Hebden Bridge, UK
Sun, 02 May 1982

What I remember most about this gig was the floor bouncing when crass were on and the fantastic scenery on our way into Hebden Bridge, also the great hospitality of the organisers I think who gave some of our party that couldn't get home. DIRT were a typical anarcho band of the era with a girl vocalist but they were ok. Annie Anxiety always interesting and thought provoking performance art really. It was the first time in 2 years since I'd seen Crass in Bradford and was really anticipating seeing them, they did not disappoint with their piledriver sound raging against all that was messed up with the world back then which was a lot, us cold war kids had plenty to rail against. 41 years later they're probably needed more than ever.
