YO - Who performs like this anymore?
Consciousat 9-30-2008
No one. I can't see anyone in America at least that can conjure up the energy. Surely people can jump around but it's definitely not the same type of thing. You think about the era and the goings on that made fuel for those guys performances. The movement that was happening in the 80's the state of the world. In 2008 artists don't face the same type of struggles not to say that it's not hard for many but surely artists are much more privileged on so many levels.

I've been waiting for something like this from them since I was 13. And that was 20 years ago! Killer stuff.

Reminiscing...these were the times, this was the attitude. no matter how stupid HR got afterwards, at this time he still got the brains, the guts, etc.

um... this is killer, as is the band. it's too bad all you fools are watching this on aol or something and haven't seen the target video which sounds better and I think it's actually in dc or you could just find the clips on you tube. still great though.

when this was filmed i was 12. two years later i discovered bad brains.
my life was forever changed. this show is the epitomy of pure, raw punk rock energy. the blueprint for many bands to eventually try to replicate years after but fail.
Long live BAD BRAINS!

If I palyed bass for the Bad Brains I would be a little pissed off.....it appears that the band are a 3 piece on this dvd...what the hell is that all about?
Such energy and passion,utterly mesmerising.
It's a sad inevitability that 99 per cent of rock musicians disappoint ( eventually) and by the mid 1990's the Bad Brains had become a mainstream rock band devoid of passion and purpose.However, when their light burned bright it scorched everyone!

Two words to describe HXC back in the day...TOTAL CHAOS..Agreed with Bad Dolo(comment #2) "who performs like this anymore?"

"REAL" PUNK ROCK FOR A CHANGE...TOTALLY AWESOME!

Makes me tear up. Thinking of fun times when shows where a few bucks. We where serious and all the kids did not buy their punk culture rock at the malls! Rather we earned it!
