   About Eat The Rich
....So our drummer was in the loo during half-time at one of our gigs. He overhears a conversation between two guys... "I love the band - but what are they?" "They're a folk band, bit raucous like." "No, they're more like a punk band" "I dunno - folk punk band then..." And fiddle punk was born! We're Eat the Rich. We're loud, we're raucous, we're unashamed of taking the best bits from all sorts of music. We write our own songs, we mug traditional songs in a dark alleyway, we even do some of other people's songs and add a twist or two. And we're proud to come from Devon with all its good and bad. We don't like The Man. We do like booze, fags and great music. Hell, what's not to like? But above all it's all about the passion. Feel it, live it - so come and see it! Subvert & Survive

One protester dead and many injured as thousands upon thousands took to the streets of London to vent the feelings of a nation sick and tired of corporate greed. As the man lay dying protesters retaliated breaking into banks and setting them alight!! Viva la revolution.
