Full article:

Ian Congdon [audience] : Billy Bragg at Whitehaven Civic Hall in 1984 was a seminal show for me. Andy Kershaw was his roadie and support came from Hank Wangford and the Frank Chickens. It was the time of the Miners' Strike and very political, angry, energetic, I can still see the venom in him when I think about that show.
