Recently, former Crass
singer Steve Ignorant
undertook a tour of the US where he performed a selection of Crass
classics. Reportedly, ticket prices were rather steep to see the singer of the iconic Anarcho-punk band of historic note. Then again, Ignorant was heard, in a recent documentary on Crass
, to grumble over how little money he made from the band, and how he’s basically now working shit jobs.

And I sure hope some fans invoked the proper spirit of Crass
by purchasing some generic t-shirts at a Goodwill, turning them inside out, and breaking out the stencils and spray paint. The legend they could plaster across the fronts of those shirts? “PAY NO MORE THAN $5 FOR THIS SHOW.”
