She certainly was a one off and her book from a couple of years back was a good read.
Makes you think doesn't it if she knew about her cancer when she was putting it together...
Also,in some ways a lot of what she did wasn't really any different from what Bowie kids did in a few years earlier.
I mind my mate telling me that a few kids used to copy Bowie's fashion in places like Castlemilk and Barrowfield in the early 70's and they were running the risk of getting more than a kicking, all for a bit of eyeliner too...
Ironically, for all her mithering about 'hicks from the sticks'. Interesting that she was from a 'hick'town herself😃
RIP as 66 is no age these days.

That makes it even more bewildering her statement regarding'hicks from the sticks'.

Johna posted a lovely tribute to Jordan on his Facebook page. The first time he met her was the first time he went to Seditionaries... he must have been about 16. Instead of biting his head off, like he feared she might, she smiled, was polite and gave him some money off his purchases.
She really looked after the young kids that came to see The Ants in those early days.

JORDAN'S ESTATE & BLACK RABBIT PRODUCTIONS PRESENTS
THE OFFICIAL JORDAN MOONEY MEMORIAL CHARITY CONCERT
www.concorde2.co.uk/events/the-official-jordan-mooney-memorial-charity-concert?fbclid=IwAR1rIcgjo-BNkN5sEJqLE9KfGazlmPgbGmOujUYAqvPCxG1XKL75Cbn66ok
This is the Official Memorial Charity Concert for ‘The Queen Of Punk Rock’ Jordan Mooney, who sadly is no longer with us in person. Her legacy in the music and fashion world will last for many generations to come. Jordan had the ‘punk look’ before punk existed! She was there at the inception of the Sex Pistols and then went on to become Adam & The Ants first manager.
Jordan was an inspiration to countless numbers down the decades and an advocate for many new up-and-coming bands, as well as for her punk friends in the more established acts. This memorial concert reflects this and will feature live sets from The Monochrome Set, Gaye Bykers On Acid, Johnny Moped, Spizzenergi, DITZ, Bootleg Blondie, AK/DK, The Pink Diamond Revue, Monakis, Fruity Water, Peter Perrett (stripped down set) and Host John Robb.
True to Jordan’s punk ethics, all of the artists appearing will be treated on an even basis. Therefore the bands will be appearing live in an order that you would not anticipate, so it is advised to arrive early!
There will be DJ sets consisting of tunes that Jordan loved in between live performances and other happenings, such as slide shows throughout the event. Food including vegan options are available on site as well as drinks.

She deserves some bigger names to make an effort.
