#OtD 6 May 1926 a Britain-wide general strike was ongoing in support of miners. There was a rumour that Millwall dockers scabbed, which was supposedly the origin of their football rivalry with West Ham, but we've found no evidence for this. More here: stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/1064...

When I get write my autobiography, the day I worked with David Johansen will have its own chapter. Or two.

A gent, raconteur, sensitive soul, rock God.

We talked about music, Scrooged, chemicals (not *just* those ones), social history of Belfast and New York.

What a guy.
