80's punk ISLAM on CRENSHAW

80's
PUNK Islam
on CRENSHAW ???

OKAY got you the
SHOCK ADVERTISING
there is a TRUTH HERE

Where NOW STANDS
a Nation of Islam Church
was, in the
80's A WILD PUNK VENUE *
THE BALBOA THEATER
on CRENSHAW punk venue
near Manchester in South L.A.

AND MAY I SAY A VERY NICE
AND QUIET NEIGHBOR IN THE HOOD
totally fun inside this old movie theater
trying to pull it out of my mind
there must have some SOME SEATS
BUT THERE WAS PLENTY
OF STANDING ROOM TO SLAM *
before the theater's large stage.

Can you imagine EL DUCE *
in front of this old place
raising his beer smelling arms up yelling
"MEN ARE SUPERIOR"
well it happened here

how about the time we did an interview
with JFA
in their tour bus
an old school bus
painted grey
in the alley behind the theater
that was fun

speaking of bands
beowolf suicidal band
doggy style now kottonmouthkings
wasted youth
jfa still going srong touring always
uncle slam suicidal band
entropy now 'crusty' still going strong
swa a hollywood band
final conflict o.c. band
d.i. o.c. band
uniform choice o.c. band

many, then, young punk bands

the was the battle of the bands
did doggy style, members now with
kottenmouth kings,
win the competion?

so long ago
so much pleasure
