I Hear You Singing In The Wire

It always makes for an interesting session when we’re scheduled at the same time as the Indignation Meeting gang! Smithy was a bit nervous about how his opening set might go down – but it was great to see all the old punks nodding along to Y Viva Espana as they were queueing for the bar. An air of madness and joy pervaded the rest of the day and many commented on what a fine time they were having. Here’s what we heard:
