Just been listing the times I saw them and records I used to have. Must admit I underated them myself. I had 'Upstart' on green vinyl and Teenage Warning on red vinyl. Wish I'd kept them....

Really sorry to hear that Mensi has passed away. Thing about Mensi was that many people, even within the punk scene, disagreed with him and he created a few enemies. But he never wavered for a second - even when it kicked off at gigs. I still don't agree with him on many, if not most things, but he was as genuine as they come.
