I saw them in 94 (maybe 95??), HR wasn't with them, I think the head dudes name was Joseph I, he did a very good job. The venue was really small and they absolutely blew the place away. Doc Know must be one of the best punk guitarist ever.
I got to smoke with them beacuse my flate mates band supported them, and we knew where they were staying, so we went over before the show haha it was pretty strange, they are big smokers. Their manager rang me after the show to get some more smoke but we were all out.

shame HR wasn't there but still, that's a great story. Bad Brains in a small intimate venue would be some gig.

Cause they're all Rastafarian mother****ers.
I'm extremely jealous though.
