There’s a story, possibly legend, about Lily. It’s said that when the police raided the Vauxhall Tavern during the AIDs crisis Lily was carted down the station. The copper asked Lily her name. “Lily Savage” The copper asked for her real name. “Lilian May Veronica Savage”

She came from a generation of such ferocity, strength and defiance. And as we face fresh bigots who try and once again stamp out our existence with harassment, death-threats, & violence & harassment, when it begins to feel too much we should remember Lily’s generation.

Lily is pictured abovr with Pat and Breda McConnon on their last night running the Vauxhall Tavern in 1993. She’s alongside Regina Fong & Adrella. I could talk for hours about those two queens and their own legacies, but today is about Lily Savage. Lilian May Veronica Savage.

If you’re in an audience talking constantly, it’s distracting to both me as a performer and the audience around you. You’re stopping me from doing my job well and cheating everyone out of what they paid for their ticket. I stopped a show today to have two people thrown out. 1/2

“Views” is a broad word isn’t it? But when those “views” are rooted in the total vilification and dehumanisation of a marginalised group they cease to be views and instead become hate speech. And any venue has the right not to platform hate-speech.
