''…We, the Fichissimi, will not play today and will not play anymore. If you’re only interested in punk music, you can watch MTV, buy records at Rock & Folk or Zapping, and shell out thirty thousand lire for the punk band in concert. You don’t need us, and in fact, we don’t want you. The Fichissimi weren’t here to bring their message to as many people as possible. They weren’t here to entertain anyone; we’re not prophets nor musicians. [...] The Fichissimi no longer want to create products to be peddled by informers and alternative music magazines. Too many of you bought our record like any other product, without realizing it wasn’t meant to be and shouldn’t have been a product. There were even those who, at the end of concerts, asked us for autographs, asked if they could have a used pick from us, or a piece of paper with a setlist on it (relics? I’m speechless). There were those who sold the first pressing of our 7" for twenty bucks to some collector. There were those who were surprised when we told them that we wouldn’t play at Rototom, Dracma, and alternative discos, even if the entrance would have cost five thousand like at a squat. [...] Next time, go to the Leoncavallo or the Gabrio; the beer is cheap there too. Tonight you didn’t have fun, you didn’t spend the few moments of freedom you had as you wanted, you wasted your free time. And tomorrow we’ll all return to our shitty lives. Sad, isn’t it?''
