Subject: RE: Folk Against Fascism launch at Sidmouth
The first song of the concert was Steve Knightley singing Roots and he clearly said why he was singing it and what the BNP were trying to do. Dogan Mehmet did the same a bit later. The leaflet was available in the foyer before people went in. The concert was clearly billed as 1 hour ... complaining that the talky bit didn't happen in the first few minutes is like walking out of a Ralph mctell concert at half time and complaining he hadn't sung Streets of London (which I assume he does as an encore!)
