Another chance to see Henry Rollins in my own backyard (I grew up in Detroit) that I missed. I missed seeing Black Flag in 1986 because my band Psychosis was headlining at Blondies (also in Detroit) that same night. On this night Henry Rollins was fronting his eponymously named solo band. This night my band Psychosis was headlining a show at a club called The Sleazy D in Lansing, Michigan. I think Ted Nugent was at Pine Knob and either White Zombie or Sepultura at Harpo's. A big night for live music. I remember we sold out the last of the initial pressing of our 1st album that night. Driving home that night we heard our song "Demon Lord" on the Lansing college radio station. They eventually played the whole album but received the most requests for our tune "Fluffy Bunny Boo" (don't laugh it was one of our heaviest hence the goofy name). Any way it was great to get a recording of this gig a few years later.

  1. What great, and frustrating, stories. So sorry you missed those shows, but at least you were playing music~!

    1. It was a little frustrating as a music fan, as a musician it was fine. Like you said I was playing my own music in front of an audience that paid to see my band. The night of Alice Cooper's Big 1980s comeback in Detroit my band Psychosis was headlining a sold out show at Bricklayer's Hall in Pontiac. I missed a lot of tours in the 1980s and 90s because of my music career but I only regret one, missing Miles Davis the last time he played Detroit.
