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

[downtownlive]

Nope...main room street level.

[MNGS717]

[downtownlive]

It's still the Embassy

[downtownlive]

@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

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

@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.

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

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