I was there too. That was a great show. Straw Dogs opened. I remember at the time thinking they looked 100 years old and they were probably over 10 years younger than I am now. Also, the crowd was really going apeshit and was surging like waves up and over the stage. I clearly remember Lou SOIA wind-milling from one end to the other, like he was trying to make room. Yeah man, one of the greats.
Was there as well - at least a far younger version of me was. SOIA *always* brought it to Boston - we saw them so many times, and every time was a wild show.
Welcome to DOUBLE CROSS - an online fanzine dedicated to the hardcore we love... past, present, and future. The goal is classic fanzine vibe and content, with stories, interviews, photos and more - updated every day through the week. While this might be a "blog," we want it to go beyond what that term typically represents.
And while we are undoubtedly straight edge and will put the best straight edge bands at the heart of this site, in no way does that mean we won't be featuring all of of our other favorite hardcore bands here as well.
Check out the below links for more info on us, as well as what we have been putting up here since beginning construction in March '08. Get in touch if you wanna contribute or just say what's up. X X X Tim McMahon / Gordo
THANX: We would like to give thanks and credit to Ken Salerno, Tim Singer / Boiling Point, Dave Sine and all the other photographers that have graced the pages of Double Cross. We could not do this with out you, so thank you very much for your contributions.
Big thanks also to some of our regular contributors, people like Joe Nelson, Billy Rubin, Agent A, Tony Rettman, Jordan Cooper, Larry Ransom, etc. All have been huge assets to Double Cross and we greatly appreciate all your help, effort and time.
Also, we'd like to give thanks to Ed McKirdy over at Livewire Records for lending his help and support to this project.
Early SOIA is always a treat.
