I've been thinking lately about what great bands were around here in the late 70s.
H-Bombs, Secret Service, The Fabulous Knobs, Cigaretz, X-Teens, Bad Checks, and that
"just for fun punk group", Butchwax. We(Butchwax) got to play on the same bill as Secret Service,Cigaretz, Bad Checks and the Fabulous Knobs at places like the Free Advice, Cafe Deja Vu, The Pier and the Cat's Cradle. Some of the most fun times I can remember. There is a great blog site with mp3s from these groups and more that you should check out.

I played in a local band called Butchwax in the late 70's early 80's. One of
my co-workers said she saw us at the Cats Cradle when she was 18. One of her
best friends is Robert Keely (H-Bombs, Nevermind, Secret Service). She also
knows Mitch Easter. Mitch and Bobby were two of my local heroes after I saw the
H-Bombs for the first time. My buddy Ron has been talking with Dave Gourley (Secret
Service) about recording. I'm itching to make some music. I dislocated my index
finger on my fret hand about a month ago, so I haven't been able to play guitar.
I hope I can start soon though.
