> THe best Flag show I ever saw was in Cleveland, 1982 perhaps. My friend (who didn't like punk) and Chuck Dukowski, from a maybe foot-high stage, heckled each other in between songs. Rollins, wearing LONG and BAGGY shorts and nothing else (of course), during a slow song (Damaged II?) crawled across the floor on his stomach for about 10 minutes, thru all the spilt beer, broken glass, etc. right thru the audience, which respectfully parted. The rest of the time the audience was swaying back & forth like big waves. At another show I saw Rollins loading the drum set into the van after the gig (no big expenses like roadies). I also went backstage before the show and told Greg Ginn that I never got my "My Rules" t-shirt that I'd mail ordered. He wrote down my name and address, put it in his guitar case, and a few weeks later I got my shirt in the mail. THey really were a band-o-the-people.

Probably all the way up until Dez and Chuck Dukowski left the band. My War and every album that followed are all pretty terrible. It's not just Rollins though. I think Bill Stevenson and Kira are SO overrated in that band. I've never heard so much praise for such a stiff, awkward and boring rhythm section.

I hate that era of Black Flag with a passion. It was probably a pretty hilarious show,overall, to see wank-metal era Venom come on after Rollins and his tiny black shorts playing their shittiest songs.
