Fang - Live In KY & VA + Live Cheap

I've declared today to be Fang Friday! And to celebrate I've got a 1984 recording from the Jockey Club in Kentucky, a 1988 recording from the Iroquois in Virginia, and the officially released 'Live Cheap' which contains both old and new live stuff. Download all of 'em. Ya kinda have to, it is Fang Friday after all!

Negative Approach - Live '82 + WFMU

Few things are more powerful than Negative Approach. Today we have a 'then and now' pair of live NA shows. The first is from New York's Mudd Club in 1982 and the second is from a 2008 radio show. Still fuckin' brutal!

Black Flag - Live '79 & '81 + Welcome Home Henry

Let's spend the weekend listening to some of the early (and BEST!) LA area bands. The mighty Black Flag started early and toured often. They also had a knack for changing singers. Here are three shows with three different singers. The first from 1979 is with Keith Morris. A great early set complete with crowd chaos in the middle. The second is from 1981 and features Dez singing for the Flag for the last time. And the third has everyone's hero Henry from his first visit back to DC as the new Black Flag singer.

Butthole Surfers - Live '84 & '85

The first time I had an opportunity to see the Butthole Surfers live was in either 1987 or 88. It was also the first time I saw GWAR. And I've never been the same since! Here are a couple shows from earlier in the 80's. The first from Halloween night 1984 (which I have erroneously labelled as '83) in KC and the second from an '85 night at CBGB's.
