It may snow here later today.Panic in the streets!
First,Slash Records released some very influential albums by some brilliant bands back in the day.Bands like X,The Blasters and Los Lobos are treasures of American music.I have seen all multiple times.Of course I am a huge fan of Dave Alvin.
I once saw X at the UBC Sub Ballroom.One nasty mosh pit spitter landed a few on Billy Zoom.Initially Billy was going to bop the jerk on the head.Billy then suddenly exited I believe stage right.Oh! Oh! Billy did return in a foul mood but the show was great.
Another X memory: finally had something to talk to a rather attractive punk girl I knew thanks to them, as she'd seen X in NYC, walked til dawn the streets of lower Manhattan etc. My vicarious punk period, remembered warmly. Cheers.

Somehow I've never gotten X, although they seem like a band I'd really like.
ReplyDeleteI don't have any live performances, though, so it'll be interesting to see if this recording changes my view of them.
Thanks!
