Great show by X last night. About an 80 minute show, which is plenty of time for about 50 punk tunes. There were 2 opening acts. After seeing John Doe either solo or doing his folkie thing for the past few years, it was funny seeing him bouncing around the stage playing bass guitar. If you like seeing 50 and 60 year olds bouncing up and down on the dance floor, this was the place for you.
While I lived in Hollywood in 1981, I never ventured out onto the Sunset Strip when X and Black Flag and their ilk were playing the clubs. It wasn’t a safe place to be if you were just a regular schmoe like me. So it was fun to finally see X, albeit in a faded glory.
Couch time for at least a week.
