Rob Newman (stand up comedian and Mary Whitehouse Experience with David Baddiel -1993) talking about Crass, and getting arrested after one of their gigs. The gig he's talking about was at a venue called Bowes Lyon House, in Stevenage (Hertfordshire, England) on 18th September 1980.

There was a funny story around my scene back in the day about one of our crew who kept playing his first CRASS record at the wrong speed for the longest time before someone else heard it and informed him. He really liked it at both speeds. It's the only band that I've ever heard anyone doing that with, and now in the comments it seems like this happened to a lot of people with CRASS! That's really cool, that you can make music that sounds great at 45 rpm and 33 rpm both! Got to see Steve Ignorant and his band play all CRASS songs at Riotfest a year ago. Fucking brilliant!

Yes mate. You saw Crass. First time for me was 1981, the 100 Club in London with Poison Girls and Flux of Pink Indians. It was one of those gigs that changed my life.

@@hopebgood Yes, they plsyed our Youth Club in 81 twice, no bar or age restriction, average audience age about 14. Some Youth Club with no bar in some little, insignifcant overspill town in Cheshire because some kid(not me) wrote to them and asked them to.. They were selling millions of records and could've packed anywhere out. I used to write letters to them, you'd get a reply to everyone and a load of badges and pamphlets . Imagine a band selling that many records and still having the time to do that?? I love their music, their artwork and love their sentiment. A one off!

Never saw them, saw Steve Ignorant in Berkeley once. Listened to a lot of Crass during 1980s.

I find if you play the record backwards, it sounds better,, With comments saying shop at woolworths.
