Steve Ignorant interview part 2

Steve Ignorant discusses how the idea for The Last Supper tour (where he is performing Crass songs for what he says will be the last time) came about, the Feeding Of The 5000 gigs he did in London in 2007, how Crass split up, and the "myth and legend" surrounding the band. Filmed February 2011, during rehearsals for the North American leg of The Last Supper tour. http://www.steveignorant.co.uk

@mostmusicisbad Mixing "a bunch of posh hippies" with the working class was the best way of saying "fuck you" to social class division. They all had (roughly) the same ideas, so I don't see what place their background has in any of this.

Can't believe Steve got stick for performing a few songs to a willing audience. I love Crass but it actually wasn't a particularly 'authentic' band. It was just the art project of a bunch of posh hippies and Steve was the real authentic punk voice. While posh hippies always seem to land on their feet, working class people actually need to earn money someplace, especially now that the authorities have reduced the ability for people to live alternative lives underground.

Happy about seeing the interview. Sad that I may never see the songs performed.
