Nice one, doc.
Never heard of it, so that is an evening, or two, of research for me....
Perhaps a contemporary survivor of the form is the Lewes Bonfire nights in
November, though their roots are in religious intolerance, they have
made pointed social comments over the years.

Subject: [BluePlanes] Fragile
I have prosecuted the band lately; now it's time to defend them.
I fucking love the music. I remember the first time I saw them do
Razorwalk...and I remember how they played at some uni or other with that
god woeful band Kingmaker.....and blew them off the stage.
So, what I would like to know is...what is Fragile about? "everybody's out
in the street banging pots and pans".....Gerard's stunning mesmeric voice
rising and falling with lyrics that twist and turn (more ee cummings than
Louis M, I'd suggest) with emotion, sarcasm, nastiness, wit and then back
to emotion.
Any ideas?
