I was living a block away, on larrivee. and I was probably at that show, as I'd played in a side band with a couple of the boingos

geoffeg,

@historyofpunkrock with Suburban Lawns. I have such a fascination with that band. They seem like a flash in the pan but their sound is so good.

nycCatHerder,

@historyofpunkrock I really miss that place, and all of the other awesome music venues in the city that got replaced by cookie cutter sports bars.

@historyofpunkrock Pauline Black is just a force of nature. Saw her supporting Blur last month and she's just amazing.

@historyofpunkrock Man, they look so damned young. I usually don't think that with most bands because few last as long as BR, so I don't see them performing when they're elderly (i.e., my age).

@historyofpunkrock Lorna Doom with a Peavey T-40 bass. I had one of those, it was like wearing a dining room table around your neck. A beast of a guitar.

Nothing to do, nowhere to go, oh

@historyofpunkrock Love that song. Coincidentally, I was driving around today and flipped to Classic Rewind on SiriusXM just in time to catch most of it.
