The Pogues frontman has died, aged 65.

His biggest hit was an idiosyncratic Christmas single called Fairytale of New York, an emotional touchstone for many of us.

🎼I am a patient boy
I wait, I wait, I wait, I wait
My time, water down a drain

Everybody's moving

Everybody's moving, moving, moving, moving
Please don't leave me to remain 🎵

Dans le Morbihan rural, musique punk, récup’ et luttes des classes

Sans aucune subvention ni fonds privés, le collectif Noom a réhabilité à Campénéac une boîte de nuit désaffectée en salle de concerts autogérée. Au cœur de leur projet: l’entraide et la #culture pour tous, avec ou sans moyens. Reportage lors d’un festival #punk, à rebours du consumérisme ambiant.

🧵 Punk vs Prog

Another cultural pundit on TV last night dragging out the threadbare 'Punk was a response to Prog Rock' chestnut. When TV documentaries repeat this punk/prog cliche they always cherrypick Prog's most ludicrous moments (that many prog fans don't like either) to support the claim...
At the time, John Lydon, wore a 'I hate Pink Floyd' t-shirt. Punks also wore swastikas but were far from nazis. Lydon says it was a performative gesture...
