Went to the Frida Kahlo preview day at Tate Modern. Opens officially this Thursday. Was a real eye opener for me of her brilliance beyond the image. The exhibition is titled “The making of an icon” and warning that only 30 of the 300 or so paintings are by Frida. The rest are from contemporaries like her husband Diego Rivera and also those who were influenced by her work. There are also lots of incredible photos of her as well as hand painted corsets and traditional Mexican dresses that she wore. I didn’t realise that she was injured in a car accident in her 20’s and had to wear corsets for mobility. Loved the fact that the surrealists contacted her in the 1930s saying they loved her work and she told them she had never heard of them. The first 3-4 rooms are incredible and are worth the visit alone. The later rooms with modern takes on her work are less interesting but overall this a must see and I will definitely visit again.

You can now stream Aaron Trinder's amazing "Free Party: A Folk History" until June 21st. If you haven't seen it yet it's essential viewing whether you were there at the time or just want to know more about the late 80's and 90s outdoor free party and acid house scene in the UK. You get lots of cool extras to watch as part of the rental too. I did a a 3 hour podcast with Aaron talking about his own history as well as the film and I will link that in a comment below too.

The film follows the inception of the movement, a meeting between ravers and the new age travellers during Thatcher's last days in power, and the explosive years that followed, leading up the infamous Castlemorton free festival in 1992 - the largest ever illegal rave, which provoked the drastic chan...

50 years ago, one of the most mythologised gigs in history happened. The S*x Pistols at Manchester’s Lesser Free Trade Hall. June 4th, 1976. Audience: less than 50 people.
Organised by Pete Shelley and Howard Devoto of the fledgling Buzzcocks, this show kick-started the Manchester punk scene. Peter Hook, Bernard Sumner and Morrissey were definitely there. Tony Wilson claimed he was – but some say he was on holiday. Mick Hucknall is always mentioned as attending, though he himself says he wasn’t. No one believes him.
Want the full story? Read “I Swear I Was There” by David Nolan. There’s also a great YouTube documentary by him with the same name.
A tape of the whole show exists. You can hear Lydon taunting the crowd, and them hurling abuse back. To me, the crowd’s reaction is almost more important than the music. I cleaned up the audio of the between-song banter. Here are some highlights:
Early on: “If you don’t like it, you can f**k off out of it!”
Someone shouts “Eddie and the Hot Rods.” Lydon: “F**k off.” Then: “You got a lot of mouth to say it in the dark.”
But as the gig goes on, the crowd gets raucous. Even Lydon seems surprised. “Where have you all come from?” he asks. Two encores. They finish with “No Fun” for a second time – already out of songs.
There’s one photo of the audience by Paul Welsh. Long hair. Bad 70s fashion.
This was year zero.
