Live in Notts 2021

On Friday 24th September 2021 the Steve Ignorant Band made their debut live performance at the Old Coal Store in Nottingham. The full set, 25 songs, all on this CD with no overdubs etc. comprised entirely of Crass songs from the early part of their career. The pandemic had meant that the band couldn’t meet to perform so all rehearsals were conducted via Zoom, so the purpose of this show was to act as a live rehearsal in front of a small audience before performing to a much larger audience the following night at North East Calling in Newcastle-upon-Tyne. Other shows were planned but lockdown restrictions had resulted in these being re-arranged several times and delayed until 2022.

The show was recorded and the band were so pleased with the performance that they decided to release it. Limited to just 300 the CD is packaged in a digipack with a 4-page booklet that includes photographs from the performance.
