Man! This was near the end! I have this show on video. Ian said it best in "American Hardcore." He said "it just wasn't FUN anymore. It was over, I was done, as was most everyone else." Citing violence, fights, bad changes, etc. he could feel it was dead, gone, done. That was 85, which I suspect this show is from, maybe 84. But, you can see the fun in this great footage of one of the greatest bands in history. Thanks for putting this up.
brilliant band,nver saw them worst luck remember played london lycem i think 1983 time saw it in sounds!!!!But kick myself now not going dwn from manchester to the gig!!!!
They don't make shows like these anymore; There aren't many venues here, and even if there were, not nearly as many people would go to the show. And if it's in a backyard, everyone's too cool to slam dance at punk shows, or they just wanna keep their hair nice and spikey..
@TheHypnotoad15 well I'd hate to live where you do. here in baltimore bands are playing shows like this all the time. whether it's in a basement or in the top floor of a rundown building downtown or an empty parking lot a few streets down, stuff like this is happening all the time. look up bands like double dagger and dope body, they're obviously different than this, but they're both great.
They stayed true to their word and broke up before they sold out. On the same coin, what the world needs now is Minor Threat...or at least Fugazi, hehe
Let's get shit faced.

all the hype was true. I saw them play in Tampa and they were one of the best live bands ever.
