Londen – Dope trailer, dope band. Al bijna 35(!) jaar. Vanavond is de wereldpremiere van een rockumentary over deze legendarische “Terrace Band”, gevolgd door een concert. Helaas kunnen we er niet bij zijn. Oi! oi! oi! Je weet niet van Cockney Rjects??? Komt-ie:
Peel loved them, Morrisey loves them, Shane Mcgowan and Ricky Hatton loves them….the music press hated them, the West Ham loving Cockney Rejects. A volatile cocktail of street punk, working class values and football mayhem, these young East End urchins felt they were taking Punk back from the Kings Road posuers and back to its grass roots.The video is a brief history of English hooligansim in the 80s and 90s, it contains some scenes people might find offensive but hey, this is the rejects…it weren’t ever gonna be pretty.
tnx 2 Thomas
