There's a few tweaks to be made to the flyers and acts to be added and in right orders etc. The Great Skinhead Reunion Brighton 2023 was founded in 2011 when there were barely any Skinheads left in UK, too many funerals and 'we really should meet up again in better times'

Sadly the play was not completed and Phil very sadly recently died from his long term illness, so the band are performing in honour and memorial
