I knew M.E. Smith wrote this song about the infamous incident at Disneyland, but I didn't know he was there when it happened.

From my favorite Fall album - This Nations Saving Grace. I always felt the track was influenced by the Clash song If Music Could Talk.

Ha! Beautiful song that is, and much prefer Steve's vocals to Southside Johnny's. I'm curious - how did you come across this? (btw, Steve does a great revamped version of it on his latest album, 'Soulfire', with the Persuasions on backing vox).

She opened for Swans on some of their last tour, and this one, from her upcoming album, sounds a lot like the band from the past few albums.

I'd love to open up for Swans....with a round of machine gun fire.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

That's just unkind. I'm thinking you should listen to more Swans. :cool:

Well, it does fire off some kind of painful discharge.

Ha! I've seen that before. Weird enough for the Fall to be on national tv but in conjunction with alt dance. All this in the midst of Thatcher feasting on what was left of the common good. No wonder Heston went nuts.
