  • For a brief time, John and Harley set aside their differences and reunited.
    This video is the first three songs from their first reunion show.
    May 29th, 2001
    I filmed this using the club's cameras and the sound is direct, unmixed, from the soundboard.
    The songs are World Peace, Show You No Mercy, and Malfunction

    Both current Cro-Mags are good, but put the two Tazmanian Devils on one stage and you have the explosion on the cover of Age of Quarrel made real, this is simply f u c k i n g a m a z i n g. Hope those two dudes sort out their issues one day and be amazing like this again.

    • @cheayunju
      @cheayunju 7 років тому +11

      I agree with that. Small pit scenarios are hardest. The thing that changed though was that people were really mean in the 80's pits. The sense of musical community on the floor hadn't developed. Festival pits are a totally new thing with their own dynamics like weather. I've been in some weird pits with bands like Crash Worship but I think huge concert experience is not so good. Smaller groups enjoying something local yet twisted is better.

There was crazy stage divers (myself included) and good ol hardcore dancing and people just having a good time nobody starting shot with anyone. Even without Harley they still bring it harder than most bands younger than them.

      Yes. this is an unmixed recording with the levels for the house PA... the bands cabinets on stage added to make a fuller sound in person.
      I am not just saying this because I worked at CBGB for years... I also played in a band and toured in cities around the world and never had a better sounding room of that size than the way CBGB sounded
      CBGB was renowned for its fantastic sound... not just in the room, but on stage for the band
      Record labels often showcased new bands there for the press... not just because of the history of the venue, but because of the great live sound

    Yeah, I had an older brother that first introduced the music to us before we were teenagers. We were too young to understand most of what it was other than knowing it was a rebellious &underground type of music. At that age there isn't any money to check out the bands, even had we known they were putting all-ages shows.
    I kept with the music throughout all these years-seeing new trends on the national and international scale and seeing tons of local bands come and go.Too bad it all sucks now.

    They could have used my multicam stereo audio version if they wanted because I gave a copy to John Joseph.

    Important to remember Bad Brains were a PART of hardcore, they didnt invent it. Dont forget about Dead Kennedys, Black Flag, DOA, Misfits, Minor Threat etc etc etc. These bands were all considered 'hardcore' compared to Clash/Pistols/Ramones punk. Agnostic Front was well before CroMags in this heavier wave of hardcore, and the Cro-Mags took it to yet another level of mayhem. All great bands...

    While Hardcore did not die exactly at the end of 1986, it certainly changed. It is not the same as the first era, and the current "scene" is really just a pale imitation of the original. In fact there are a whole host of new bands that are desperately trying to mimic the Hardcore Punk pioneers, but always fall short. I have tons of records from the 90s to today that I am looking to dump somewhere. In a way it is kind of funny that most of the LPs and EPs I buy are all from the late 70s to 80s.
