	8:34pm Chris Crash: ↳ Song: "Linda Blair '84" by "Redd Kross" Just...epic
	8:34pm Dean: Saw Red Kross only once, at Al's Bar, LA, late '80s, early '90s. John Mayall, RIP
	8:34pm Minnechristo: Chantilly Lace from the Big Bopper was a stand-out, because they came up through Iowa and stopped at the site where he and Buddy Holly crashed.
	👻 8:34pm tim: ↳ Minnechristo @8:34 Excellent!
	8:35pm Mike Sin: Rocking out to Redd Kross as I shower, shave, and tighten my hair weave here in studio B. Sounds great!
	8:35pm David Shortell: I saw that bad movie the McDonald brothers were in, "The Spirit of '76". Whatever became of the actor who played the villain Snodgrass? He starred in a short horror film a couple of years later, but apparently that's it.
	8:36pm LesleyK: ↳ Dean @8:34 Hi! that must have been a great show. I first saw them around 1990 (third eye tour)
	8:36pm Tinley Park Randy: I still have my original I Hate My School 12 inch on Posh Boy Records I bought in 1981.

	8:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Huge Wonder" by "Redd Kross" Riffs recalling 'WarPigs' ...& 'Silly Kids' Games' by TheDamned...
	👻 8:38pm tim: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @8:37 War Pigs! Totally!
	8:38pm Dean: Indeed, they were great. I wasn't going to a ton of shows in the mid-'80s, so I wonder if I saw Red Cross, before the name change? Anyway, props to them for not only hanging on, but for delivering the goods for a very long time!
	8:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @8:37 ...which I'm glad I can name - cause would bug thuh crap outta me otherwise ...& who knows maybe Sabbath was even riffing on something off 'Revolver' we can hear...
	8:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Dean @8:38 Yeah.
	8:39pm Stu Rutherford: Loving these selections, Lesley!
	8:40pm Joe B: ↳ Song: "Pretty Please Me" by "Redd Kross" hell yeah! always a burner live!
	8:40pm LesleyK: ↳ Stu Rutherford @8:39 thanks Stu!!
	8:42pm medson: Great show Lesley
	8:43pm LesleyK: ↳ medson @8:42 thanks medson!
	8:45pm David Shortell: I remember 13 years ago at the Brighton Bar when Dez Cadena screened 1984 L.A. punk show videos, including footage of the night the Bangles' Vicki Peterson played in Redd Kross!
	👻 8:45pm DJ Terre T: ↳ David Shortell @8:45 Thanx amazing David!
	8:45pm LesleyK: ↳ David Shortell @8:45 oh, sweet!
	8:47pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Shonen Knife" by "Redd Kross" Was this released before Shonen Knife came to the US?
	8:47pm Dean: Here they are pre-name-change in a photo taken by a colleague, Al Kowalewski, with whom I worked on Flipside fanzine at the time: https://api.floodmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Red-Cross-Fleetwood-credit-Al-Flipside-copy-2048x728.jpg
	8:48pm LesleyK: ↳ David Shortell @8:47 hmm not sure about that. But Shonen Knife also does a song called "Redd Kross"
	8:48pm Chris Crash: What an incredible stop down the strong style kings road! FUCKING INCREDIBLE SHOW LESLEY, thanks for doing it for me!! This show truly captured everything incredible about Redd Kross.
	👻 8:48pm tim: So why again Pearl Jam filling stadiums and Redd Kross wasn't?
	8:49pm Joe B: ↳ David Shortell @8:47 no they played one show at least in L.A. in 1989.
	8:49pm Dean: Well, dang, there it is!
	8:49pm LesleyK: ↳ Chris Crash @8:48 thanks!! and we're not done yet ---Appreciate that you let me take over today
	8:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Born Innocent" by "Redd Kross" Such an interesting tune.
	8:50pm LesleyK: hey wrong pic.. chris can you switch it back for this song?
	8:50pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Born Innocent" by "Redd Kross" I wonder if they ever met Linda Blair.
	8:50pm Joe B: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @8:50 also fodder for a future theme show - title track appearing on a different album!
	👻 8:50pm tim: ↳ Chris Crash @8:48 Chris - I mean your shows are killer but we may need a few more Strong Style LK RK shows! ;)
	8:51pm Chris Crash: ↳ Dean @8:47 Amazing photo Dean, thanks for sharing!!

	8:55pm LesleyK: ↳ Jessie @8:55 thanks so much!
	8:55pm medson: Thanks Lesley. Killer show.
	8:55pm David Shortell: At one point when they played at Asbury Park's Fast Lane (1990?), Bob Hecker suddenly started singing and playing "Born in the U.S.A." It only lasted a minute until Bob broke down laughing.

	8:34pm Chris Crash: ↳ Song: "Linda Blair '84" by "Redd Kross" Just...epic
	8:34pm Dean: Saw Red Kross only once, at Al's Bar, LA, late '80s, early '90s. John Mayall, RIP
	8:34pm Minnechristo: Chantilly Lace from the Big Bopper was a stand-out, because they came up through Iowa and stopped at the site where he and Buddy Holly crashed.
	👻 8:34pm tim: ↳ Minnechristo @8:34 Excellent!
	8:35pm Mike Sin: Rocking out to Redd Kross as I shower, shave, and tighten my hair weave here in studio B. Sounds great!
	8:35pm David Shortell: I saw that bad movie the McDonald brothers were in, "The Spirit of '76". Whatever became of the actor who played the villain Snodgrass? He starred in a short horror film a couple of years later, but apparently that's it.
	8:36pm LesleyK: ↳ Dean @8:34 Hi! that must have been a great show. I first saw them around 1990 (third eye tour)
	8:36pm Tinley Park Randy: I still have my original I Hate My School 12 inch on Posh Boy Records I bought in 1981.

	8:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Huge Wonder" by "Redd Kross" Riffs recalling 'WarPigs' ...& 'Silly Kids' Games' by TheDamned...
	👻 8:38pm tim: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @8:37 War Pigs! Totally!
	8:38pm Dean: Indeed, they were great. I wasn't going to a ton of shows in the mid-'80s, so I wonder if I saw Red Cross, before the name change? Anyway, props to them for not only hanging on, but for delivering the goods for a very long time!
	8:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @8:37 ...which I'm glad I can name - cause would bug thuh crap outta me otherwise ...& who knows maybe Sabbath was even riffing on something off 'Revolver' we can hear...
	8:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Dean @8:38 Yeah.
	8:39pm Stu Rutherford: Loving these selections, Lesley!
	8:40pm Joe B: ↳ Song: "Pretty Please Me" by "Redd Kross" hell yeah! always a burner live!

	8:45pm LesleyK: ↳ David Shortell @8:45 oh, sweet!
	8:47pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Shonen Knife" by "Redd Kross" Was this released before Shonen Knife came to the US?

	8:48pm LesleyK: ↳ David Shortell @8:47 hmm not sure about that. But Shonen Knife also does a song called "Redd Kross"
	8:48pm Chris Crash: What an incredible stop down the strong style kings road! FUCKING INCREDIBLE SHOW LESLEY, thanks for doing it for me!! This show truly captured everything incredible about Redd Kross.
	👻 8:48pm tim: So why again Pearl Jam filling stadiums and Redd Kross wasn't?
	8:49pm Joe B: ↳ David Shortell @8:47 no they played one show at least in L.A. in 1989.
	8:49pm Dean: Well, dang, there it is!
	8:49pm LesleyK: ↳ Chris Crash @8:48 thanks!! and we're not done yet ---Appreciate that you let me take over today
	8:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Born Innocent" by "Redd Kross" Such an interesting tune.
	8:50pm LesleyK: hey wrong pic.. chris can you switch it back for this song?
	8:50pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Born Innocent" by "Redd Kross" I wonder if they ever met Linda Blair.
	8:50pm Joe B: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @8:50 also fodder for a future theme show - title track appearing on a different album!
	👻 8:50pm tim: ↳ Chris Crash @8:48 Chris - I mean your shows are killer but we may need a few more Strong Style LK RK shows! ;)
