I'm too lazy to find out properly but I think it's 'Hurry up Harry' or else maybe 'Borstal Breakout'

NotMe

Yeah that's it "Borstal Breakout". One of my fav Sham69 songs.

ANarcho-Munk

tbh i got their live album and thought it was pretty terrible, i thought it'd be much better than it was.
Yeah Borstal Breakout is probably their best song in my books anyway.

NotMe

ALL their live recordings sound really shít.

Kingsize

05:The Vandals????

10: Paranoid visions (who else??)
