Mekons - Where Were You? (live at Hurrah)

[stewajf]

Mekons gigs are among the best I ever saw. The blew the roof off the fucking joint at CBGB (way after it's heyday) just after they came out withThe Mekons Rock 'n' Roll!

[tatty775]

saw them a few times, notable at Liverpool's Eric's in about October 1979, supporting Gang of Four and with Delta 5 in tandem. great days

That was great, shame it ended early though. :)

[shonuffido]

@MsBabster The Au Pairs were from Birmingham.

@shonuffido -- Someone possibly got Delta 5 and the Au Pairs confused since the Delta 5 are from Leeds. So it should read: 'gang of four /delta 5 /au pairs all great LEEDS bands'

[dcpride76]

@dcpride76 -- er...'gang of four/ delta 5/ mekons all great LEEDS bands'

Just returned from the Mekons show in Brooklyn at the Bell House. Great show. I was also at the Hurrah show depicted in this video. Wow!!! The Aupairs, Mekons, and the Gang of Four performed that evening. Great to see the video.
