I've Always Been A Bit Of A

First Of All, [st. Stephen's] Is A Radical Church. It Was One Of The First Dc Churches To Have Gay Ceremonies. A Woman Said Mass There, Which Almost Got A Priest Excommunicated There; Black Panthers Spoke At The Church; It Was A Sanctuary For Civil Rights Protesters And Anti-war Protesters.

Ultimately, I Know What I'm Doing And Why I'm Doing It. I'm Trying To Be A Construction Worker. I'm Trying To Make Things. If People Are Not Interested In That, Fine. I Just Don't Give A Damn.

You Can Hear A Real Shift. You Listen To The Late 80s Recordings, You'll Hear Us Engaging With The Audience, Dealing With The Issues Surrounding Punk Shows At The Time. Back Then, People Thought You Had To Be A Skinhead And Beat The Crap Out Of Everybody When You Went To A Punk Show. Come The Early 90s, When You Had This So-called Grunge Stuff And When Videos Became So Dominant, You Had This Totally Huge Shift In The Culture Of Shows.

Now Anyone Can Move Anywhere. I've Made Deep Connections With People Around The World Since I Tour Everywhere That I Will Simply Never See Again.

The American Underground Punk Scene, Though, Is A Story Worth Remembering.
