Social D

So I just saw the band Social Distortion live and in person (via the Egyptian Room of Indianapolis' Murat) and I think I just fulfilled a childhood goal. I am hoarse from yelling the words to "Don't Drag Me Down". My left shoulder and stomach are sore. I got to see a skinhead publicly humiliated and then kicked out by a room full of anti-rascist punks. Social Distortion is one of the bands I grew up listening to (thanks Dave Mirra BMX for the Playstation) and they just played a kickass show. I also saw a dude in a Minor Threat T-shirt drinking a beer and at first I was a bit mad but then I realized he was probably straight edge like Ryan so it is okay. ALWAYS GONNA KEEP IN TOUCH!!!! NEVER GONNA USE A CRUTCH!!!! I'VE GOT THE STRAIGHT EDGE!!!!!

Also the opening band Strangers was really fucking good: http://www.myspace.com/strangersstrangers

The second opening band Civet was an entirely chick punk band and they were okay... the lead singer was pretty peppy and yelled a lot so i guess that counts for something. Their recorded tracks sound a lot better than they did live: http://www.myspace.com/civet
