  • /watch?v=Wbl4OaavyeY the version of a hardcore band from argentina

  • Andrew wk sing for black flag how he was born in 1979

  • il y met de la conviction

  • I didn't know Andrew WK sang for Black Flag.

  • My substitute band teacher in 5th grade taught us how to play this song, best sub ever!

  • fuck dude there's like barely any black flag on youtube left

  • @NocturnalCucumber - there were a ton of live videos but now they are gone. wtf

  • @NocturnalCucumber Greg Ginn went on a rampage the other day banning videos. I had some favorited and went back to look and they all had SST Records takedowns on them.

  • @hndsmepete same man. like black coffee n everythin

  • @hndsmepete yeah thats a drag, hope someone decent takes things over when his crazy catness dies

  • @wulfyworld Hah. He can't live the cat charity concerts down. I have heard two of those shows & there was definitely a reason why Mr Ginn wasn't the vocalist.

    I think it would be funny if his brother Raymond Petitbon becomes the one in charge after he dies. I think it will most likely go his nephews or nieces. I know that his sister has kids strictly from his nephew being in a band & it being on music sites a while back. 

    On the SST site there is no Black Flag references anywhere.

  • Nice fucking Bengals shirt. I live Cincinnati!

  • like philip anselmo

  • Whoa, Hank Rollins.... I have to fan myself. Woohoo!

  • I wonder how Henry can stay pissed in a show improvising these funny things.

  • is henry improvising?

  • That is usually how they sang it haha.

  • oh I wasn't sure since the words are different on the Louie Louie EP

  • The live versions they usually just improvised.

  • yeah that's what I meant haha

  • awesome! i never thought i'd find footage of this. I've been to and played at the embassy quite a few times. this show was far before my time though.

  • 4:18

  • rollins a fuckin ledgend read the book GET IN THE VAN henry Greg, Kira & Bill. brilliant

  • Great cover. I like that extended jam. I don't care what anyone thinks, this lineup was Black Flag. Henry, Greg, Kira & Bill.

  • right you are

  • Good sound there.

  • I was in the Whippet Lounge. I seen The Vapids there. Is this where Black Flag played? In the basement?

  • Nope...main room street level.

  • @MNGS717 Both the whippet and the main room were street level. Played both of those stages many times.

  • @chachionacid It's harder for me to remember now! One poster I have says "The Brunswick" and a flyer from same date says, "Whippet Lounge" inside "The Embassy". Thought I went in a basement that had all the Kozik poster prints on the wall. Other shows I went to were at "Catch 22" and "Underground". If my friends get things worked out we can come back again next year

  • Nice video! What is the name of this place now? I think I was there a couple years ago

  • It's still the Embassy

  • Actually...it has since burned down.

  • It was torn down recently by the crazy owner.

  • Holy tits! This was the day I was born!

  • FUCK YEH!!!!!!

  • This group was truly unique.

  • Thanks!

  • holy shit 1984 lol i wasnt even born then:P
