About this episode
Episode 296 - We're going wild in the streets on this episode because Damian is joined by his buddy & a goddamn LEGEND: KEITH MORRIS! Listen in as the two discuss the LA punk explosion, & what led up to it, from the most first hand of perspectives. From going with Greg Ginn to see the Dogs in a music wasteland to watching West Coast hardcore take over the globe a few years later. This is NOT TO BE MISSED & don't miss the brand new jammed packed reissue of Group Sex (one of the best records ever!) out now on Trust Records. Also Touched On: Not heroes, friends Great bass players LA versus NY punk A nice thick red face and zucchini noodles Talking Heads, Blondie and most of the early CBs scene wasn’t really punk The Dickies and X are the only bands to get signed Zolar X The Imperial Dogs The Dogs from Detroit: Ginn and Keith’s favourite band The Last kick it off in the South Bay Lucky Leher gives out his number on Group Sex and regrets it Jeff trades Keith a song in exchange for a new band name Hollywood vs the Beach communities The effect of growing up in the “Hey Devo!” era Don’t stand around trying to figure stuff out, jump in: Beach Jocks Circles Jerks and Fear to 5000 people at the Olympic Auditorium The Stooges on their last legs The effects of Charles Manson on you Culture Vom were… fun Fear forming to mock punk The Extremes to Youth Brigade The Atoms: pre-DFL and GnR The first tour Fanzines Making sure you were playing with the good band in each town Borrowing riffs four month long tours no merch & SO MUCH MORE!!!
