    Oh shit that was awesome. I first heard McRad when Public Domain came out, and didn't know they were from Philly until many years later. Rad footage of Groholski's ramp!

    I remember going to see McRad at CB's. As I walked up, I saw a guy skating the center island on Bowery and falling a lot. I was like "that can't be Chuck Treece". A few hours later I saw him on stage doing his thing. All-around talent. Great show. They opened for Underdog.
    If anyone comes across the show they did on WFMU, it's a great listen.

    The group passed a resolution that called for the examination of the activities of the agency and its social impacts.

    The policy is profoundly important, but it must be communicated to the parents, although some don’t realize the consequences.
