I still haven’t attended one of these since I went to the haphazard first one many years ago, I am going to make a pilgrimage to the Museum in a couple months, hopefully the heat won’t close it down when I’m there, that sounds like a great talk to be witness to, Kieth & Dez have some great Robo stories, I think they might’ve known him the longest, I will always say my favorite BF lineup had Robo & Chavo in it, I never was able to connect with Henry in the lead & I always preferred Kieth in the Jerks with Lucky on drums, but that’s old hat at this point, I think I like reading about these things rather than being at them anymore & you write about them in a way that is both nostalgic & current, especially with the references to aging & sobriety that I can relate so well to, many thanks…
Amen to enjoying festivals more without alcohol. I don’t know if I could make it through an entire day let alone several days of live shows and standing on unforgiving pavement while intoxicated. Haven’t had a drink in six months and I don’t miss it a bit.
These are adults with money to burn at a glorified oldies festival, not broke misunderstood teenagers defending their backyard from a rival gang. Attacking someone for wearing questionable attire is unconscionable. Fashion crimes don't justify real crimes, and to try and defend this behavior is to embrace the true spirit of fascism.

De nada and thank you!

Good for you, Jamie! It's definitely more difficult to rally for these big festivals while drinking. It's hard no matter what!
"They delivered the message with their words and their fists, which is the correct way to deal with Nazis..."
Always. Good on them and F that guy.
Agreed. FLAG was amazing. I was told Keith had the flu but he sounded great and Stephen is just incredible!
Ceremony’s club show was pretty insane too. I real eye opener for me.
Good to see you, hope that happens again soon.
Cheers
He did have the flu but rallied. What’s a good entry point for Ceremony. Keith told me to check them out and *hangs head* I haven’t.
