Description:
You probably feel bad that you missed the first launch at Hell and so you should. Here is your shot at redemption in the shape of a Stuart Bailey exhibition called Straight Edge. For this show, Stuart remakes the Minor Threat logo (nb: they basically invented straight edge and would be probably peed off even to be mentioned in this heinous, booze hound enewsletter) using Lagerphones (nb: those Australian bush instruments). Overall, this seems to comment not only on the DIY thing, but also on incidents where the Minor Threat logo has been re-appropriated by marketing types for evil ends. Stuart Bailey is not evil, but he is using bottle tops to make a straight edge sign. In Hell. Hmmm.
