This was genius–after spending the late 80s listening to a trashed cassette copy of "Age of Quarrel," I feel REALLY fortunate to have caught John Joseph in one of his rare Cro-Mags incarnations–with original drummer Mackie Jayson and a couple other NYHC vets–a guy from Leeway and somebody else, I forget who. They were fantastic though, and they KNOW what they did that was good–they played practically that whole first album (as opposed to the goofy metal stuff that came after), plus a cover of "Right Brigade" by Bad Brains, which fucking kicked ass, as well as a half-assed cover of "Teenage Wasteland" by The Who, which I got a kick out of anyway. God it was great.

The opening bands were great too–Cruel Hand, Colin of Arabia, and Death Before Dishonor. Another brilliant show at Anchor's Up in Haverhill, MA. The proprietor, Josh, does a fantastic job.
