We watched it last night too.  Still love that movie.

“Bullshit, you’re a white suburban punk, just like me.”

I was too when I first saw it.

Both Kevin and Lagarto played on Joe Strummer's solo album Earthquake Weather.

Kevin - Vander was in the LA hardcore scene.

You find one in every car!


Repo Man was a must watch for every suburban teenage punk, along with the movie Suburbia.

Back then just about the only way to listen to Hardcore was a recording, of a recording, of a recording, on cassette tape.

The license plate on the Malibu changes from the first scene.  Kind of ruined the whole credibility of the documentary for me.

Thanks for the heads up.  I saw it at a theater, with only a dozen people in the audience including me and a friend.  I was the only person in the joint laughing.  Still cracks me up just thinking about it.

I was a kid when he came out with that gimmick. I had to ask my parents what a repo man was. That was Peak WWF. Loved all the crazy gimmicks.

Borrowing vinyl from dudes who could afford it, lol. I got lucky, there was a kid selling import vinyl out of his parents basement.  He owns Reptilian Records now.

Dude put out some gems with Dwarves, Pig Destroyer, and Mastodon.  Haven't seen what he's done lately.

I saw Dwarves and Nirvana in a shitty little bookstore in Baltimore in ‘87 thanks to ol’ Chris X.  He really was a good dude. There was no room for a pit so everyone just sat on the fucking floor..

I was too.

Rewatch some of his promos on YouTube. He has some gems. He took a little kids bike and rode it down the isle.

I just found out he was one of the demolitions a year or two ago

I'll give it watch (the movie) I was too young to remember so it's basically new now

My dad had this on repeat after I was born and it's the first movie I remember seeing as a child. I assume that's why I'm such a fucked up adult.

Wow.  That's awesome.  I was a late bloomer with both those bands.  Still never saw Dwarves.  

I'll be hitting this soon.  Never saw Stooges so hopefully Iggy's set is full of their songs.  Fishbone, Sublime, and Power Trip seem a tad out of place.

Not at all. Friend of mine had one. Designer of the neutron bomb. You ever hear of the neutron bomb? Destroys people - leaves buildings standing. Fits in a suitcase. It's so small, no one knows it's there until - BLAMMO. Eyes melt, skin explodes, everybody dead. So immoral, working on the thing can drive you mad. That's what happened to this friend of mine. So he had a lobotomy. Now he's well again.

That’ll be an epic festival.


Missed Stooges while Scott and Ron Asheton were still alive would’ve been nice to see with Mike Watt on bass .  I had a neighbor who saw them back in Michigan in the Seventies when I was growing up.  Saw most of the bands on that bill including the Damned (Dave and Capt. got into the shit with each other onstage, lol)

Got a friend from Cali that says Sublime was punk early on..

Don’t discount Fishbone, saw them twice in the eighties once at GWU with Schoolly D and they tore shit up.  Nonstop action.
