25th Anniversary of Solidarnosc meets 10th Anniversary of My Irreverance

This Friday was the 25th anniversary of the Solidarity Movement in Poland. In order to commemorate this event, a massive stage was erected in the Rynek and music and other performances went on all night. Also, several old Soviet military vehicles were displayed, including an armoured 'people plow' for breaking up riots.

I paid homage to those events in 1980, by this piece of performance art, which was not appreciated by many babcias present, but was very much appreciated by a crazy old polish man with a huge beard, who said to me in broken english, "Light up a bottle of vodka and throw it at that tank...I did!" And I believed him!
