Ok, so this is OT , but i think this is the second OT i have posted so i figured its ok, delete if you want. I just watched the live GB show on the CBGB's site, it takes a long time to download but its well worth it. i know alot of guys on here are old punk rocks kids and hardcore kids so i know some of you will want to check it out. Civ said some really cool shit about Straight Edge kids, supporting your scene, Bullshit racism. You should check it out. It takes about 15mins to load and is about 1hr 15 min long, but well worth it. Straight Edge Youth PMA 1157 LGH
Wow, wasn't even aware that GB was still playing together... that's great! Didn't Walter go on to play guitar for Quicksand? And Civ and Arthur are "civ"?
Gorilla biscuits kick ass! Wish I could've seen them. I've got a Strife CD that has a pic on the disc of a kid wearing a shirt that reads: "Straight edge isn't cool anymore". Haha!
HAhhahah yeah, I like that shirt. I have been for a long ass time and I aint gonna change - "cool" or not "cool" L
Hey boys, this is true. Lots of old hardcore guys into rods these days. I even saw Cabellaro at the Rumblers NYC show. Anyway, one of my favorites from back in the day was always UNDERDOG. Russ the bass player is actually one of my best friends now. Its weird to know all these guys so well so many years later. Met Lars from Rancid this weekend too,he's an S.F. Rumbler. Well, you all know there are a lot of old punk's that run with us, pretty funny. Anyway's , Underdog is playin my club Asbury Lanes on Sept. 10th, and 11th for the kiddies. Its gonna be sick, people are calling like crazy. Side note, met Arthur from Gorilla Bisquits here as well, he loves this place. The phone just rang, Dywane Peters and The Huns just confirmed too, some crazy Sk8 fest thing happening with The Kings of Nuttin on Sept 17th. In the long run, we all stick together.
Hey Mel, You know Civ used to be in the Rumblers as well right? Back when I joined in '00. We used to stock the fridge at Union Pool with O'Douls just for him! Haha! He did most for my tattoo work as well. I should get in touch with him and get more work done!
I saw Underdog play w/ Scream @ the Wilmar center in madison Wi. in the 80's. The Wilmar is an old church/community center, I'll look for a pic of that show to post. What's the singers name? I saw him play with Into Another somtime ago at a roller rink.
Go to this page and on the left hand side it says ' live streams ' . Click on that and it will take about 10 - 20 mins to load. http://cbgb.com/livestreams.htm L
Skin will win! "Survival of the streets". What do Staight-edge guys do when they grow up? Build hotrods and steal cars!
Hey I got to be friends with Skeeter from Scream years later too, wonder where he is now. Scream was amazeing. I played drums in a band called P.I.S. and then later we called ourselves Wellaware. When it came to an end I joined the Marines, on line for chow my first week there, I meet the guitar player for Breakdown. Now that was weird. Since I hang with half of the old NYC crowd, and or know them through friends, we are talking about doing a big show some time soon at my place Asbury Lanes. Thinking of doin a big old punks bowling tournament with bands bowling against each other and bands on our stage in the middle of the lanes. That would be sick! Just think, Harley pitted against John Joseph, Suicidal against the world, I'd pay to see that. The punk rock battel Royal!!! I'll keep you posted.
I can't believe I missed it and I was in town. Squirm called me and said Civ wanted to say hi and as it turns out we coulda gone, but none of us can tell the future. I'm going to England on Tuesday for a punk rock reunion, I'll be playing with my band Chimp Eats banana for one night only. It's a bit ridiculous doing this stupid shit at 44 years old, but life's too short not too. Go here to see old pictures of a young Nads. http://www.railwayworkers.co.uk/index2.htm
Damn Nads! Hard to believe you were this young once Well good luck and have fun on your one night reunion show!
On a kind of related note, have you seen the nissan commercial with the Civ song in the background? Oh, and I'm going to see H20 this saturday in L.A.!!!! Bryan still rocking my hooded champion sweatshirt
I remember seeing the Gorilla Biscuits with Judge and Insted back in the day. By the way, I think it's a new Nissan or Honda commercial with a Civ song playing in the background (can't wait one minute more). How crazy is that?
Shiiit! I didn't even bother to read the entire thread. Just saw Bryan's post above mine. You beat me to the punch!
Insted! NOOOOOOOOOOOO! My Insted record got burned up at lukesters apartment fire, along with Doggy Style and others.
i saw that commercial... i couldn't believe it! they must have some punks working there or some thing.
