Dale Stewart, one of the guests for our Underground Garden show at the Rogue Festiva (it’s episode 3 on Sunday March 5th at 5pm at Veni Vidi Vici), did it right. This site is the real deal. It’s a very informative site (with lots and lots of pictures from the times) about the Fresno punk scene in the late 70′s and early 80′s. If you are at all interested in punk (Fresno or otherwise), you’ll want to bookmark this site. Pictured above is NBJ (the band with such a rude name that you’ll have to ask privately what it stood for ) playing at Roeding Park. This was a great gig (I’ve got some pix of it myself laying around here somewheres). The band in the picture below was in attendance, but weren’t on the bill that day —The Short Order Cooks. They went to Hoover High ( a year behind myself) and yes, they did get a lot of guff (to put it politely) from the predominately “Rush” and “Supertramp” t-shirt wearing student body. (Both of these pictures are from the stagedive records site….check it out!)
