And it would probably dislodge a whole lot more uncirculated boots with the underground buzz it would get.
We are up to Feb 82. At the end a book as RAT says. Push the issue of bootleg tapes out to a wider audience in the hope of increasing the pool of recordings. The plan is around 2010 to do a 12 or 16 stop world tour with the book, promoting it. Trying to tie in to some Strummer/Clash nights in each city. UK, France, Italy, Germany, Sweden, USA east and USA west, Canada, Australia, Japan?
