Those good old bad old days-Large.m4v

‎20 years since the last Tory Government ruined all the fun and tried to stop everybody feeling the love! lets not let them do it again ! once really was more than enough. looking back I cant help but wonder if they hadn't clamped down so hard on the free party / festival scene maybe the kids wouldn't be trashing and burning there own communities, stabbing each other for their trainers and blowing their minds on Ketamin and Violence. There really was a lot of love back in the day, I recall hugging numerous football hooligans and "hoodies" (big Dave would have been proud) it was a kind of therapy for society and an antidote to the social lows of the time, the rubbish nightclubs and psycho bouncers, the manufactured culture of the eighties hangover. would have been interesting to see how it would have affected the mainstream of society if it hadn't been stepped on so heavy, its still infected everything about our culture, the advertising vultures have had plenty of room to take advantage using drum and bass to sell toothpaste and graffitti to sell cars, but it wasn't really about that, hip hop is everywhere, but know they are jawing on about their bitches and money, not preaching Chuck D's revolution. They were amazing days, those brief flashes of freedom and community, maybe this barrage of tory right wing slash and burn politics will give us some new songs to sing, new colours to burn across the night sky? there was a small free party going off the other night in the park over the road from where I stay, good old school tunes too, made me chuckle as I was laying in bed trying to sleep now in my 40's, doooh those noisy kids, but hey, you cant kill the spirit!
