[kj] Antithesis of Killing Joke -- good catch

I first saw Killing Joke at a place called The Cat Club on E.13th
Street in 1989 (this was the tour with Taif on bass, circa the release
of the ODIC flexi of "The Beautiful Dead").

In the crowd: Johnny Feedback (drummer of NYC proto-hardcore legends,
KRAUT), Handsome Dick Manitoba of the Dictators and ----- standing
directly behind me, JOEY RAMONE.
