    Hey, I saw Attila at Mariposa in 1990. His song “Libyan Students from Hell” (If you miss your bus, blame it on us…) was a big hit with the crowd, but it seemed to be the only thing in his repetoire (I heard it three times in three days). Anyway, good to know he’s still performing.

    Interesting. Most of his stuff, especially back then, dealt with British politics, and he might have felt Canadian audiences wouldn’t get it. (“Willie Whitelaw’s Willie” remains a classic: “It’s small and shrivelled and it looks so silly”…)

    (Credit where due: I first heard him on an album my brother Mike had called “Oi! Oi! that’s yer lot”. Thanks, bro!)
