“Some people think that little girls should be seen and not heard.”

RIP Poly Styrene.

Aw, rats.

All girls in punk bands circa 1989 had heroes, and she was one of mine. It started with a one-night stand when Petey told me after a show that I could come over and listen to an X-Ray Specs record (record!) at his place. I ditched the boy but kept the music. It was good, y’know?

Thank you for all of it, Poly.
