The Go-Gos documentary is my SHO on demand, when I get a chance, I'll check it out @Therese I'm sure I will enjoy it. Thanks for recommending it. I usually find your taste to be on the money!

That's the thing Therese - they were a punk band when they started.

great segue, also (Lewsbery-Courtney)

yeah they didn't fit in with the L.A. punk scene because they could actually play

@Therese I love archival footage of LA punk scene that I have not seen yet - hello Joe B and all else tuned in to Therese today

Joe B:

yeah I know. that didn't last long. anyone who cried sellout to them was just jealous that they actually knew how to improve
Avatar 6:36pm
Therese:

@Franco- the doc gives ample time to original members Margot Olavarria and Elissa Bello and the band's shift away from punk.
  6:37pm
Dean:

Never saw the Go-Go's, but did see The Eyes, featuring chresti's former roommate. A super band. Happy birthday, chresti! Those old fuzzy videos of the early Go-Go's definitely depict a band not quite ready for prime time, but all the more lovable for that fact.
Avatar 6:38pm
Joe B:

once gina shock came in, even before the more poppier material came in, they were destined for bigger things.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:38pm
Franco Twinkie:

Yes she was! I saw The Germs when they had a girl drummer, but do I know for sure it was Belinda? No.
  6:38pm
Dean:

No. Was Donna Rhia.
Avatar 6:38pm
Joe B:

belinda never played a show with them, according to the internets
  6:39pm
Dean:

I bought my copy of "Forming" from none other than Chris Ashford, Germs manager at the time.
Avatar 6:40pm
Billy Jam:

@Rabbit - just realized that that debut "Gi" Germs album that I have a copy is worth a bit of money now in original pressing
  6:40pm
Dean:

Remember, Franco? He was stationed at the register at Licorice Pizza, Sunset Blvd., across the street from the Whisky.
  6:41pm
Dean:

Well, not manager, but owner-operator of What? Records, the label on which the single appeared.
  6:42pm
P-90:

Licorice Pizza. The big record store with the big head shop department. As many record stores did.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:44pm
chresti:

I saw the Go-Gos once at the Masque, with Margot on drums, I think.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:44pm
Franco Twinkie:

I don't remember Dean, but you know, at that time everybody everywhere was doing something, and some people actually went on to be a big deal. But at the beginning...
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:45pm
chresti:

Thanks Dean.

Carmichael:

Heya Therese and ear people. I STILL have a big crush on Annie Lennox.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:47pm
Franco Twinkie:

I saw Gina when she was in The Incredible Eggs with Edith Massey. Now that was a band!
  6:50pm
Dean:

Never saw Black Flag--don't like them, actually--but I did see Kira Roessler in Waxx.

Rtintera:

Loving this set today. So nice bbq’ing with the breeze
  6:51pm
P-90:

Anyone see X in their prime?
  6:53pm
Dean:

I avoided X in their prime and always. So sue me. But I would have loved to have seen the Randoms. Both bands played the Masque Benefit on the second night, which I didn't make. And of course the drummer for the Eyes was D.J. Bonebrake.
  6:54pm
Dean:

But I did acquire X's first single from one of the guys at Dangerhouse, pre-release, because I was working for Flipside at the time. Gave it to a buddy who likes the band.

Carmichael I had a crush on Annie Lenox also. Still adore her.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:57pm
Franco Twinkie:

P-90.I first saw X practicing at The Masque on a Sunday afternoon. About a month later I saw them open for The Screamers at The Whiskey. They were ragged at first, but every subsequent time they were better. Meaner, tougher, more musical.
  6:59pm
Jett:

Still have my Go-Gos single on U.K. Stiff records, where they went to, in order to launch their debut. I prefer that version of "We Got The Beat." By the time the released the re-make in the states, it was old news to me.
  6:59pm

Happy bday, chresti. Leos RULE!
  7:34pm
Jett:

I was cooking during your little speech about what Kate Bush song to play. I was screaming, don't play that. Play "Babooshka" and sure enough, you played Babooshka. We had that transmission of thought going on again. @Therese
