there isn't really one Levellers song that you'd expect to hear at a gig
Oh, but, it's got to be One Way! "There's only one way of life and that's your own," sing a thousand identically-tie-dyed Levellers fans, their fists punching the air in perfect unison. It's a fantastic jump-up-and-down anthem and it comes with its own built-in irony. What more could you want? Don't get me wrong, I love the Levellers to bits, and actually getting to see them at Glastonbury was like finally getting all my teenage wishes granted ... but still, eh. :-)
(There was a question about the Battle of the Beanfield in the pub quiz last night. I had to be forcibly restrained from singing. And from shouting at people who'd never heard of the song or the story behind it.)
