And to think some misguided people in the UK used to be 'confused' by his politics because of the Upstarts being bracketed with Oi and the song 'England'.

Re: R.I.P Mensi
I knew Mensi personally and he asked my band to play his 60th birthday party a few years back which was a total honour. Had been a fan since I was 14. Gutted is an understatement.

Re: R.I.P Mensi
Very cool Heston! I'd go in a heart beat if it was anywhere closer to where I live. Hopefully someone will be able to post some video of the show.
