Fisto Part 2
Not about me, but definately on topic...

So, from the Best Graffiti Ever QOTW , this guy Fisto was everywhere during my formative years in the Soviet Socialist Republic of South Yorkshire.

Since that QOTW, I found this in the independent of when he got sentenced. I remember that now, it was in the middle of my A levels and even then I thought it was the end of an era. He got out after a year, after massive public camaign - the proles loved him bless 'em. Then was back inside for the same tricks soon, new tag Ajax

And I've just found out what he's been up to this year! Brilliant!

Night all:)

is suspicious.

Confirmatory mouse-over-link-revealing-thing is confirmatory.

The proles as you so delightfully refer to us didn't particularly love Fista because all he ever seemed to do was endless tagging. One of the reasons there was a massive local campaign about his sentence was because the same week he got sent down for 5 years somebody got 3 years for rape.
He did an have exhibition in a local gallery a couple of years. www.thestar.co.uk/news/Graffiti-artist-Simon-now-on.2047531.jp
