In celebration of 4Stroke's new LP, a full 3-hours of punk rock, in they style of Dāv's radio shows from years gone by!! Apologies to all those whose favourite band didn't get touched upon (3 hours isn't nearly enough!), and to the newer bands who were passed over - I'm not paying that much attention to the punk scene these days...
It's been a long, long time since I did a high-intensity, hyper-velocity show, and the occasion of Four Stroke's new LP. Many thanks for Ken Vermin to add a few words after the first tune! |
