Bands whose first gigs were at huge venues.

The one that started it all. Spreading gossip and insults since 1998.

It was a talent show involving several high schools.

Who gives a fuck about that?

Cant be her. They played all the shitholes. I remember her being in Kerrap! all the time, but never heard the band. Finally saw a vid in the last year or so. Damn, she couldnt sing a note!

Not Lisa or anyone you've heard of. It was some no-name band with a trust-fund singer. I'd post it if only I had enough hours to dig through the cupboard that's got all my 80s Kerrang!s in.
Kerrang reviewed it?!?
No, not a live review.. Maybe it was a news piece but more likely a mentuon in View From The Bar or some similar-style snarky article.

No, after Bach joined in early 1987 they played clubs along the East Coast. I saw them twice at the Empire Rock Club in Northeast Philadelphia. The first time on March 8th, 1987 and again on May 22nd, 1988.

Let the man be proud he was a real rocker at one point in time.
