In line with the trend of performing an album live in its entirety Penny Rimbaud & Eve Libertine will perform a reworking of "Yes Sir I Will" in Blackpool in August. Not exactly everyone's favourite Crass album ... but sadly still relevant! News release pasted below.
BLACKPOOL – Thursday 7th August
Rebellion Festivals 2014
In commemoration of the thousands on both sides who died brutal, pointless deaths in WW1, Penny Rimbaud & Eve Libertine present a reworking of the Crass classic ‘Yes, Sir, I Will’ complete with a six piece band. They are joined by Gee Vaucher who will be showing the film of the same name. As Rimbaud puts it - “It will be good to do ‘Yes, Sir’ at the festival because it’s probably more relevant today than it was thirty-five years back, and all the more so for this being the centenary year of ‘the war to end all wars’ – will we ever learn?”. Day tickets are available for this special one off performance – see here: http://www.rebellionfestivals.com/tickets
