Vatican Commandos

Vatican Commandos @ Dragonfly 2/5/2011

Moby's hardcore band from the early 80's have been playing a few shows recently. This was the first time for the west coast though and I had to go. This was the same place where I saw Moby's metal/rock band Diamondsnake a few months earlier. Also on the bill was OC's D.I. and Greg Hetson as the DJ. They played close to an hour and did 3 covers, one of my all time favorites too - Wire's 12XU! And just like the 80's the drunks decided it was going to be fun and circle pit and knock people over.

Fraud

Fraud @ Glasshouse 6/6/11 Yes I know this was the second night of the Outspoken/Mouthpiece/Youth of Today show but this band deserves its own post. Fraud is a brand new band featuring the likes of old hardcore dudes from bands like Chain of Strength, Inside Out, Statue, Excel, Pushed Aside and Against the Wall. And we all know how much I love Chain of Strength, so I was excited to see this bands first show. It was a quick set but they were on fire. I missed Outspoken the first night due to work so I was glad to get a chance to see them Monday night. Mouthpiece had a great set, it was funny to see Ben Merlis in the crowd singing every single song along with Tim.  No Curtis for the second night but Mouthpiece did get Porcell to do Straight Edge Revenge. I'll say it again- Youth of Today were just as great now as they were 20 years ago. But I thought the show was going to end early though,  just past the half way point of Youth of Todays set Ray fell and hurt his leg. Porcell took
