I’ll be the guy with the addidas in the hooded sweatshirt.

I usually hate reunion shows (I wouldn't even go see the Stooges, though I heard that was incredible...) but this band was so legendary and influential and short-lived, plus the later projects from the members just kinda blew.

I'd say they were handsdown one of the best, and definitely the _last_ great hardcore band. Thanks!

i also hate these reunion shows. Stooges is where i made an exception though.

ill be going to the SF show. i was straight edge for all of high school and my first year of college and listened to silly music like this a lot. i imagine lots of old friends will be there and such.

Most of the church basements that are housing these shows have long since sold out I believe.

My friends went to the Philly show yesterday.

The show was a great time. They played basically every song they ever wrote and also threw in a Warzone cover. They opened with New Direction and closed with Start Today with non-stop stagedives and singalongs from start to finish. Murphy's Law was a pretty good opener as well, covering Minor Threat's Straight Edge while chugging beers.
