Stiff Little Fingers - Alternative Ulster (Live At Rockpalast 1980)

[Toadonthehill.]

I’m 61 and growing old disgracefully, I saw these guys play live many many times and they are not only an excellent band of musicians they also opened my eyes to what was happening in Northern Ireland and shamed me at the time as I was ignorant of the ‘troubles’. They informed us and brought us together like no other band and to this day still can put fire in my blood 🐸🇬🇧.

Saw them in the Mansion House in Dublin September 1980. I was 15 and terrified when the skins and punks were fighting before during and after the show. Remember seeing the Skids, Siouxsie and the Virgin Prunes around the same time. There was chaos at them all 😂.

A classic punk rock anthem that has stood the test of time. Still rocks after all these years. 😊
