Saturday Music Club: some punk rock (one of the video images, below the opening images, is probably NSFW)

A lot of stuff from my tortured youth. Enjoyed the trip.

Ha! Most of this from my considerably less-tortured (than my youth) young adulthood...most of these folks are my generation (the Adverts and X perhaps ten or so years older, "Biafra" and the Ex and perhaps the Huskers a little less, the rest even closer to my cohort). As I noted to Bill Crider, who was posting nostalgic music posts from a half-century back (Beatles and such) at the same time Saturday, it struck me as odd how much of what I was putting up was twenty or almost thirty years old on balance (some twenty-five, the Adverts a bit more than thirty). Glad you liked it.
