There is a great picture from this gig of Dennis doubled over screaming his lungs next to that couch in the liner notes from the reissue of "Shape of Punk..."
I saw them live supporting Snapcase and their Fan the Flames release in 1996 in a basement. Still by FAR the best show I've ever witnessed. You've NEVER seen a band steal the show like Refused... EVERYONE was there to see Snapcase, and you'd swear absolutely everyone there would have been perfectly happy to go home after Refused's set.
I shot this video. This was the second gig Refused played that day. They had done an afternoon gig in Dublin then drove up to Dundalk to play the Sunshine Bar.
Don't be too hard on the people at the gig - they were just regular Saturday night punters in their local pub who had no idea what was about to go down. What you can't see in this are all the people behind me that were there to see Refused . Great gig.
@thumpeddotcom Fuckin awesome bro, very happy you shared this. I still remember seein this band for the first time after "Amp" on MTV. Nice up, musta been boss to be there!
thank you for posting this! one of the most influential bands in my life and i never got to see them live. i would do some terrible, terrible things to be in that room
Those motherfuckers don't realise just how good of a band they're witnessing. What makes it worse is that their indifference hasted the demise of the band. I don't think I ever had something against Ireland untill now.
Greatest concert EVER.

You guys are all idiots. He's not sleeping. He simply died from an OD of the awesomeness of Refused.
