Why were Bad Brains "Banned in D.C"?
 
I know the local clubs "banned" them from playing but do you know why? I always liked to believe it was just because the shows were too destructive or something.

bardonodude 11-12-2008 01:39 PM

yea it was because their shows were thought to promote violence because of the audience, thats part of the reason a lot of diy hardcore bands started playing basements and houses and such...thats a great song by the way, the bass line is crazy in the beginning

tyrannobear 11-12-2008 05:21 PM

because they ****ing sucked

bardonodude 11-12-2008 06:35 PM

**** you julio

Actually, after their demo material, Bad Brains did suck.

GravitySlips 11-13-2008 08:52 PM

still better than 90% (at least) of the hardcore/emo/whatever bands YOU listen to.

still suck.

bardonodude 11-14-2008 09:48 PM

lol,

tyrannobear 11-17-2008 09:40 AM

mental illness is no excuse for them sucking.

Wesley Willis had a mental illness, but he brought on nothin' but rock. Rock over London, Rock on Chicago!


no, but really.. I have no opinion on Bad Brains of the past. Current Bad Brains does suck though, and I don't care who I say it to. Baader Brains on the other hand...

someonecompletelyrandom 11-17-2008 04:37 PM

Dude, Build a Nation was pretty good.

Farfisa 11-17-2008 10:50 PM

I've heard a rumor somewhere that Bad Brains robbed the club or bar right after playing a show... just a rumor though.

Can't expect much from someone who actually thinks Combatwoundedveteran are good.

I really doubt that has any basis in reality.

Nah man, I wasn't trying to be racist. I thought I would just share a funny rumor floating around.

sleepy jack 12-10-2008 11:45 PM

I was kidding, relax.

To each their own man, but to say they fu**ing suck shows you have a general lack of understanding of the fundamentals of punk and hardcore music. I will assume you're a kid who just doesn't get it.

Considering that the post you quoted is from seven years ago, if they ever were a kid they probably aren't now.

I'm guessing you just set a record for the longest time between signing up here and making your first post.

Weird. What made you come back, Miss_Chaos?

Time warp, I'm assuming.

DeadChannel 11-04-2015 11:12 PM

Isn't it strange that she only came back... after 11 years... to reply to a post from 7 years ago?

This is some type of elaborate decades old joke.

Also, how old is MB?

Stephen 11-05-2015 01:11 AM

Maybe they just have a reaaaally slow internet connection.

grindy 11-05-2015 02:40 AM

Maybe she had to wait, until she wasn't a kid anymore, to not sound like a hypocrite.

So Miss_Chaos is an OG n00b? Is there an Urban Dictionary entry for that?

MidnightRambler 06-29-2020 06:58 PM

Rock for Light was a cool album. I like the juxtaposition of hardcore against reggae, that was something that hadn't been done at the time & it holds up well 30 odd years later.
