A Portrait of British Sub-Culture

May 11th, 2012
Something to see if you are in Shoreditch betweeen now and 3 June... http://www.richmix.org.uk/whats-on/event/a-portrait-of-british-sub-culture/

Paul Spencer captures the edge and essence of cult with his oily blue-green otherworldly portraits and atmospheric black & white documentary images of rare and unseen photography including: Mods, punks, strippers, bikers, outlaws, gangsters, fashion, film, theatre, music, Britpop, jazz, ska, cult magazines, Tank Girl, Stockbridge, Lydon, Simonon, Albarn, Hewlett, Carlyle, Costello and Morrissey...

And here's a bit of classic Smiths to get you in the mood... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=naos7it_bl0

Oh I so want to go, must try and fix a work trip darn sarf! Brill video and song, thought you were Mr Anti-Smiths mate? Also think you should edit link to Morrissey-Marr, you know give everyone their due. Always thought Morrissey was ten times better in the Smiths than as a solo artiste...
