Adolescents 1987

Dan C almost 21 yrs old and living the dream!

Dan, Did you join the Adolescents in 1987?
I saw them at Fenders Ballroom, Long Beach in 1986 & still have the ticket stub.
How did you get hooked up with them?

[DAN C]

I joined in 86. I was a anaheim/fullerton guitar scene guy and just barged my way into their scene. They played Fenders twice in 86 before I joined. The original "re-union" and short after with the Mentors and Wasted Youth. Then I joined, went on tour w/ Bad Brains and played there again with them. We headlined there a little later with MDC and D.I. opening. I was also in D.I.
Mind over Four
Primal Dance (w/ mike hirsch)
Tender Fury (TSOL splinter group w/ Jack)
Rikk Agnew (solo)
and a bunch of others.

Can you post some of your old photos in here?
Were you in the Mentors or did you do a show with them?
I saw the Mentors at the Galaxy, probably in 81-82ish.
You were in some great bands. I remember tender fury too.
Rikk Agnew's solo album was great (714 embedded in your brain).
& the work he did with Christian Death.
I still have that one on vinyl, with the 1st 3 TSOL lp's & tons of others. My old punk band also played with DI, Social D, Vandals etc... so I have photos of alot of the older bands.
I am scanning some stuff for a band tonight so I will find that old Adolescents ticket I have.
Blue album & Welcome to Reality both ripped.
I have over 200 flyers as well. Gotta get to scannin'

[MHIRSCH]

If you want to post your flyers to the photo gallery that would be cool. I wish I had my old flyers but they are all gone. Let me know and I can set you up with an account to post in the gallery. Now that I am on the new server storage is no longer an issue


Danny in the Mentors, that would have been classic!

[Mr Randolfo]

Here are a couple of my tickets.
I have tons. Notice...
Adolescents is on the bottom in pink
Devo is the one from 1979
Ramones, GBH, X, Blasters, Stray Cats before they got big.
& yes I even went to Big Country. I was bored that night.
But I have also seen Chuck Berry, Led Zeppelin & the Knack.
I am just a music whore.

Those are cool Randifer. I think I was at that Blasters show. I remember them opening for a old band called 20 20 that I used to watch. My best friend used to write songs with Jack from TSOL.

That is very cool Randifer. Looks like you saw some great shows but I don't know if I could have made it through Big Country!!! Funny how through skating or music some of us may have crossed paths all those years ago

[MHIRSCH]

The Skids were cool. Wasn't the guitar player and some of the other members of Big Country from the Skids? I want to see your flyer collection online. Let's get it going!!!!!!

[Mr Randolfo]

Okay Dude, you asked for it.
Does anyone else remember seeing Social D, Shattered Faith, Vandals & the Mentors on 1 bill for 6 bucks?
