A friend of mine, Vil Vodka from Anti-Snob.com, has spent the last several years composing a documented history on Phoenix's punk scene. He's done an AMAZING job on this, and was rad enough to post some of it on AZPunk.com. The article features a clip of T.S.O.L. performing Darker My Love at Mad Gardens in '83. Upon reading this article, my friend/client/old-school-local-punk-muthafucka, Tom Lopez, emailes me additional clips featuring J.F.A. from this very same Mad Gardens show. I guess he was the one who leaked the video online. He details this long story of how his friend, Greg Heins (drummer of old 602 punk band Mighty Sphincter) let him borrow the tape to watch it, and Tom subsequently made copies. It kinda sounded like Greg wasn't a big fan of the videos being out for some reason, but does it really matter anyway? Besides, it's history. You can't bogart history. |
