ON THIS DAY IN SALISBURY, UK -- CRASS & FRIENDS HAVE THEMSELVES A GIG.
PIC INFO: Resolution at 1000x1434 -- Spotlight on a gig/show flyer for Essex art/anarcho punk band CRASS (headlining), with fellow UK acts DIRT and ANXIETY ANNIE supporting, performing live at The Grange Hotel, Salisbury, England, on October 1, 1981 -- On this day 42 years ago.
Dig a few of these "punk rock" bills that Eddie and The Subtitles played once upon a time (and they're still doing shows, if ya didn't know). Some of the bands they played with were ok, if you're into that kind of stuff.
The "Skeletons In The Closet" reissue LP is really hitting the spot:

SAMHAIN TOURS IN '84, BUT BIG BOYS PULL THE PLUG AT THIS VERY SHOW.

PART II: Also featured here, the late, great Randy “Biscuit” Turner also during the BIG BOYS last show, Liberty Lunch, September 1984. 📸: Pat Blashill.
Man, I knew the BB had played with THE MISFITS way back when, but I never guessed that they also played with SAMHAIN this late into 1984. Wow, this is news to me, and I've never seen this flyer before, either! Anyway, I've always known that BB broke up in '84, but I never knew they held out this long into 1984 before deciding to pull the plug on the whole thing. R.I.P. (1977-1983) MISFITS & BIG BOYS (1979-1984).
The flyer I made for a party/concert at GÄNGEVIERTEL (the illustration is actually from last years party for the same thing, but we never got it printed. so I just recycled it for this year)
