3:00 PLAY STILL ILL YA BASTARDS

[transonicbuoy1]

I was offered a ticket on the school bus. Middlebrough Crypt, winter 1986. And I said no. I was a tiny 15 year old. The door policy was 18. I never got over this, just like John Peel.

[The1ne07]

Haha, yelling Scottish guy at 3:00

"Play Still Ill ya bastards!"

[shearsy79]

[luistownmassacre]

Hm is this audio from Rank?

[efsb]

@luistownmassacre No - it sounds like the audio from the bootleg of the show. There used to be a stall in a market near the Arndale centre that would sell good quality cassette bootlegs days after shows in Manchester.

[towerblockrock]

@efsb Church Street and the Underground Market...
