THROUGH THE HOOPS WITH G.B.H.

What do Charles Manson and G.B.H. have in common? His eyes are on the cover of their new LP, Midnight Madness And Beyond. Charming. And what does “G.B.H.” stand for? Grievious Bodily Harm. Nice. I was anxiously awaiting my meeting with the band before their show at the Ritz.

Grievious Bodily Harm.

Nice.

I was anxiously awaiting my meeting with the band before their show at the Ritz. Chatting with a hardcore band is one of the cooler things in life. And every night should have been this cool. Breezy Saturday evening in the Village, scattered mohawked teens hanging out in front of the hall, trading rumors and cigarettes, waiting quietly for the infamous Rock Hotel show. Treading a path through them, I made my way to the dressing room.

Hello, Prototypical Hardcore Band.
