Black Flag My War Dec. 20 1984 London Ontario Canada

[babyshaker90210]

Is it just me or are live performances of Black Flag becoming harder to find on Youtube?

[AndresitoV86]

@babyshaker90210 they say Greg Ginn is taking videos out of youtube, a lot of punk rock fans are mad about the thing even calling him "sold out"

[blakewhitmore99]

London Canada hmmm

[guschambers]

MY WaR... Your C!N!N!

[bloodpollution21]

Everyone talks about punk in here... but no one mentions Gang Green, DK, NoMeansNo, Chaos UK... what gives.

[l3054]

@bloodpollution21 chaos uk is awesome

[bloodpollution21]

@l3054 Mmmm yes they are

[bunny21x]

@bloodpollution21 Yeah...NOMEANSNO are still the best. They still play, still make new music. Basically it's them and Melvins at this point.

[bloodpollution21]

@bunny21x I saw them live last year, such a great fucking time.

[TheSouthsidestevie]

it's kind of homo erotic...no chicks..sweaty dudes...you tell me...

[EvanTheKillerWolf]

@TheSouthsidestevie Hey man, there was chicks there, but thats not what it was all about. Its about the music. The message.

[EvanTheKillerWolf]

@TheSouthsidestevie sorry i meant to say "were" insteasd of "was"

The song that gave birth to grunge.

[fivedollarsworth]

[danielscissorhands]

This is one of the coolest videos on the entire internets. Yes, internets.

And this, despite the fact that the camera-person seemed to be having trouble deciding whether to film or to mosh (pogo).

Thank you so much for uploading. BTW, what happened to the end?

[robertgalleros]

most of these young guns would not know good punk bands if it landed on there fryed out brains or whats left of it that is.

[Clare1227]

@robertgalleros im 14, and i love punk rock. not that 'pop punk' shit they have at warped tour every year.... i mean sex pistols, misfits, ramones, black flag. i really hope other people my age recognize the truth of great punk music.

[revshawn1]

@Clare1227

OFF!

[Clare1227]

@revshawn1 holyshit that is glorious music.

[revshawn1]

@Clare1227 - Yes it is!!! The return of American Hardcore!!!!

[TheAlSiratHides]

@Clare1227 Yeah, I was into all those bands when I was your age. You're not that special.

By high school you'll be frustrated by the amount of kids wearing Ramone's clothing, you'll have outgrown the pistols.

The Misfits I still fucking love tbh. Black Flag is gnarly, but as I got older I realized the pre-Rollins shit was the REAL good shit.

[mathewgarrick]

@TheAlSiratHides Couldn't disagree with this more. My War is gold. Rollins at his most insular and anti-social.

[CallMeRiverton]

@Clare1227 You realize the Ramones were the origins of what would be called pop punk, right? I'm speaking as a fan as well, I love them, have since my mom used to play them in the car back when I was little.

[DanGilmrtin]

@robertgalleros i guess you could say... WE HAVE BAD BRAINS

HUEHUEHUEHUEHUEHUEHUE

[erikwd6878]

[neverender888]

So think that Greg Ginn played in my hometown... Wow, I'm in awe.

[MrRobBanks]

Long live the Embassy

[booblikon]

that's some of the heaviest shit ever. rollins is freaking the fuck out, not even singing the lyrics half the time, just animal sounds. and i swear he's doing david byrne at the end. insane.

[SaintDrizzly]

Un-fucking-believeable!
