STUBBLE DEAD BOYS- Night Of The Living Dead Boys (MVD Video) For those who lived through the beginning of American Punk Rock in th late 70's then you know that The Dead Boys were one of the best of the lot. Long before the CA punk scene gave u Circle Jerks, Black Flag, Dead Kennedy and many others, these guys from the suburbs of Cleveland Ohio were sharin the stage at CBGB with The Ramones. Led by the antics of Stiv Bators they paved the way. I first caught them at the original Lupo’s in 1977 and they more than any other band got me to b a huge fan of punk rock. This DVD is not high quality video like the 1977 liv at CBGB DVD, but it covers music from both albums and for me it is essential. Plus the bonus interview footage and Sonic Reducer video (also not great video quality) was great to watch. Stiv is no longer with us so this is the only way to see them on video. 16 songs and since they do Sonic Reducer twice there are 17 live tracks. The stage commentary is very entertaining too. This show was part of the reunion tour that took place when Stiv's band LORDS OF THE NEW CHURCH could not tour the USA. The bass player had an outstanding warrant so Stiv got back with his roots and played with Cheetah Chrome, Jimmy Zero, Johnny Blitz and Jeff Magnum. If you love punk and do not own Young Loud & Snotty pick that up too. Essential punk rock from a pioneer band. - KZ .

FILM / VIDEO REVIEWS Dead Boys Live DVD Review [MVD] by Oct 18, 2006, 15:17
Dead Boys Live DVD review [MVD] Page 1 of 1 FILM / VIDEO REVIEWS Dead Boys Live DVD review [MVD] By Oct 18, 2006, 15:17 DEAD BOYS LIVE! AT CBGB 1977 directed by Rod Swenson; Music Video Distributors, 2004 DVD In the 1980’s, long before cult followings were manufactured overnight by a couple of internet bloggers, when the idea of a retail chain that only sold coffee was laughable, and before there was a hit Broadway show called Hairspray, there was a movie called Polyester. Director John Waters delivered something in Polyester, which seemed to speak directly into my teenage ear. Much to my mother’s disgust, that film regularly filled the screen of our living room TV. It was practically a religious experience for this high school outcast who played in a naive punk rock band. My favorite character by far was Bo-Bo Belsinger. At the time, I had no idea Bo-Bo was played by Stiv Bators and I would soon discover that Bators was the typecast front man for the Dead Boys… an ever-present band in my adolescent years. Fast forward 25 years as I pop this Dead Boys DVD into my new broadband enabled MacBook Pro with my HD television glowing in the background. Instantly time warped to 1977, I witness Cheetah Chrome attack his guitar with precision guided machine gun picking as the band kicks off the set with “Sonic Reducer.” Still fucking kills. Immediately apparent is that this CBGB signified something other than a t-shirt logo and Hilly Kristal’s epic landlord dispute.

Clem Burke's Top 10 of CBGB's Jukebox's Greatest Hits Featured In
Clem Burke’s Top 10 of CBGB’s Jukebox’s Greatest Hits Featured in The Official Punk Rock Book of Lists 1. Patti Smith, “Piss Factory” The sound of rock ‘n’ roll poetry. A Patti Smith performance in 1975 was a life-changing experience. Here it is come to life on a 45-rpm record: Patti, Lenny and Richard in all their ragged glory. Thank you Robert Mapplethorpe 2. Television “Little Johnny Jewel” Television is one of the greatest guitar bands of all time. This first single was so not “punk rock” and brilliant. Richard Lloyd takes a bow, and Billy Ficca channels Elvin Jones on Bleecker and Bowery (now Joey Ramone Place). 3. The Ramones “Blitzkrieg Bop” IF CBGB was our Cavern, guess who were our Beatles? The first single on Sire Records was more then a little inspired by the Bay City Rollers, the ’70 Beatles, “Hey, ho, let’s go.” 4. Richard Hell & The Voidoids “Blank Generation” Originally released on Jake Riviera’s Stiff Records, this song owes more than a little to the Ray Charles classic “Hit The Road, Jack,” and features the late great Robert Quine on guitar and future Ramones drummer Mark Bell. An anthem. 5. Count Five “Psychotic Reaction” A ‘60s garage rock classic with a great Yardbirds-inspired rave-up. The song was even more frantic when covered by Television at CBGB. Was that you who chose that, Tom? 6. The Stooges “I Wanna Be Your Dog” Sometime in ’76, Iggy showed up at CB’s. Talk about the return of the Messiah.

Scanner zine :: Larger than life and twice as natural Page 1 of 2 Scanner zine Larger than life and twice as natural MENU TV Party - D Home Interviews DEAD BOYS - Live At CBGB 1977 {MVD} To me, the DEAD BOYS is the definitive example of Punk Rock - certainly from that ‘77 era. Columns/ Articles The band’s sound, look, attitude all exude the ultimate ‘fuck you’. Top Sounds - Index The band still represents danger, excitement and that whole ‘to hell TV Party - Index with tomorrow let’s live for today’ ethos. Not only did the DEAD Reading Matter BOYS have all that, the band could also play like few of their Tour Diaries contemporaries and rock without parallel. You understand what I am trying to convey? The DEAD BOYS was the real deal. End of story. Polls This DVD captures an incendiary 10-song set recorded at CBGBs in Web Links 1977. It’s recorded on a multi-camera set up which doesn’t focus My Blog purely on Stiv and Cheetah, but documents the whole band as it Guestbook performs. Kicking off with the band’s anthem, ‘Sonic Reducer’, from Mailing List there it’s one wild ride. The set is culled mainly from the band’s classic debut album, ‘Young, Loud and Snotty’ with the exception of ‘Revenge’, ‘Flame Thrower Love’ and the ubiquitous cover of IGGY AND THE STOOGES’ classic, ‘Search & Destroy’. The actual performance is intense, taught and stunningly muscular increasing in intensity as the band progresses to the point where ‘What Love Is’ becomes an unstoppable slab of noxious, totally focused Punk that finishes with an abrupt, precise crunch that hits like a speeding juggernaut.

Even Intermediate Students of Proto-Punk Know That Rocket from the Tombs Was a Band Whose Influence Far Outstripped Its Sales: A
Even intermediate students of proto-punk know that Rocket from the Tombs was a band whose influence far outstripped its sales: a Cleveland, Ohio, combo that split to create art-rockers Pere Ubu (formed by Rocket vocal- ist David Thomas and guitarist Peter Laughner) and CBGB pioneers the Dead Boys (featuring guitarist Cheetah Chrome and drummer Johnny Blitz). To add to the mythos, Laughner is remembered for his untimely death at age 24; an evocative body of unreleased work; and a eulogy by his friend, seminal rock critic Lester Bangs. One member of RFTT is mentioned less often than the rest: bassist Craig Bell. However, Bell’s trajectory helped catalyze the Cleveland scene before Rocket ever started, then sparked an indie music movement 500 miles east in New Haven, Connecticut. Follow Craig Bell’s path to learn about five bands you should know about: Mirrors. Long before Rocket from the Tombs, Bell formed Mirrors in 1971 with fellow Lakewood High School alumni Michael Weldon (drums) and Jamie Klimek (guitar, vocals) as well as Jim Crook (keyboards, guitar). The band staked a claim as Cleveland’s first to emulate edgy groups like the Velvet Underground, who had captured the town’s attention with memorable shows at La Cave on Euclid Ave. According to Bell, “To my knowledge, I can’t think of any other band in the Cleveland area that was doing that kind of stuff at the time we started doing it,” Bell said in an interview. “I thought we were the only people in the world doing it.” Bell started a stint in the Army in 1972 but returned in 1974 to rejoin Mirrors — where he was spotted by Laughner and invited to join RFTT.

On Halloween (of course!) 1986 the gods of punk rock rose from the dead.

This DVD is the document of that hallowed evening at the Ritz. Stiv Bators, Cheetah Chrome, Jimmy Zero, Jeff Magnum and Johnny Blitz got it together for one more show in their old stomping ground of New York City. Starting with an introduction from long time supporter Joey Ramone, to the power riff of the honest-to-god anthem "Sonic Reducer" (played twice!) to an unreal cover of the Stooges' "Search Bonus and Destroy," the Dead Boys put the boot to the notion that all reunions suck. • Rare 1980 TV interview featuring Stiv, musical collaborator Frank Secich and interviewer Gary Cubberly Track Listing • Joey Ramone Intro • Super Rare 'Sonic Reducer' Video • Sonic Reducer • All This And More • Caught With The Meat In Your Mouth • Calling On You • Won't Look Back • What Love Is • I Need Lunch • Ain't Nothing To Do • Down In Flames • Son Of Sam • Detention Home Artist Dead Boys Title Return Of The Living Dead Boys: • 3rd Generation Nation Halloween Night 1986 • Tell Me (cover) Selection # MVDV4665 UPC 022891466598 • Search And Destroy (cover) Prebook 2/11/2008 • Flamethrower Love Street Date 3/18/2008 Retail $14.95 • High Tension Wire Genre Alternative/Punk • Sonic Reducer Run Time 50 mins Box Lot 30 Label IMAX Audio 5.1 Surround Sound Format DVD T: 800-888-0486 | F: 610-650-9102 | PO Box 280 | Oaks, PA 19456 | www.MVDb2b.com Publicity Contact: Clint Weiler | 610.650.8200 x115 | [email protected].

What an Electrifying Past: 1925 St. Marks Place In 1831, four buildings were built as townhouses for the wealthy at 19 25 St. Marks Place. Reﬂecting the changing demographics of the neighborhood in 1870, the buildings at 19 and 21 St. Marks Place were acquired by the Arion Society. The Arion Society was one of the lead ing German singing social organizations in the US from 1854 to 1918 and emerged in the East Village as it developed into Kleindeustch land, or Little Germany. When the Arion Society moved uptown in 1887, all three buildings were purchased by George Erhet and combined into community halls and ballrooms as Arlington Hall. Arlington Hall hosted everyone from Theodore Roosevelt, when he was a NYC Police Commissioner, to William Randolph Hearst, the newspaper publisher who built the nation’s largest newspaper chain. One of its most infamous incidents, however, occurred on January 6, 1914 when there was a mob shootout between Jewish mobsters led by Benjamin “Dope Benny” Fein and Italian gangster Jack Sirocco’s crew. This event took place in Arlington Hall and marked the beginning of the predom inance of the Italian American gangsters over the Jewish American gangsters. In 1920 the buildings were acquired by the Polish National Home a community meeting hall and restaurant. THE ELECTRIC CIRCUS By the 1960s, the bohemianism and nightlife previ ously associated with New York's Greenwich Village was growing in what would later be called the East Village. In 1966 artist Andy Warhol and Paul Morrissey – who directed many of Warhol's ﬁlms, and who became a sometime manager of the Velvet Underground – sublet the ballroom and turned it into a nightclub.

Newkome ______________________________ ______________________________ Department Chair Date Dr. Ann Usher ii ABSTRACT Further elucidation of Northeast Ohio’s musical endeavors are necessary to expand upon the fact that it’s equally as vital as other metropolitan centers with fertile underground music scenes such as New York City and London from the mid-1960s through the mid-1970s. Although both of those cities contained many prototypical punks and artists, Cleveland and Northeast Ohio shared rare, sheltered yet sophisticated, artistically supported and substantially influential musical underpinnings. And although there really wasn’t what one might call a “scene,” as in a substantial supportive alternative music community, there were many notable and important personalities that emerged and continue to this day to be important countercultural figures. When speaking of the lack of proper elucidation of the Northeast Ohio scene, it is necessary to look to the fact that there are only a handful of well-written books on the Punk and counterculture movements that ever really gave Cleveland and Northeast Ohio its cultural due.
