I was unable to make it in to shake your hand at the Tower Records Q&A,so this helps hugely.The gig last night was the most passionate,most powerful gig I've ever witnessed,and I've seen quite a few,I'm now 44.All you lucky Belfast folk.....Enjoy tonite ! We won't see your likes again.Not wanting to quote ABBA, but THANK YOU FOR THE MUSIC My Friend.Stay Your Way,Be Happy And Healthy,Keith.

It's good to hear from you again. We are still thinking about a gig in Norwich but are a bit busy trying to sort out going to the US. We will be in Finland in 10 days time. I'll keep you posted.

I wanted to also say that it's a great shame that you had a lot of flak for putting on the gig at Shepherds Bush. I went and it was great to chant along with other people for a change and it was a wonderful night. I went to see Crass in 1979 in Liverpool and as I was 13 and I'd skived off school and hitch hiked there I got into a lot of trouble but it was worth it. You said at the end of the gig that you had tried to change the world but hadn't managed to. Well there are many people's lives you did change, including mine. Demonstrating that you could see the world differently and to not accept things was really important. Hi Steve, really enjoying the book at the moment.
