Yeah, I am guessing I saw them in the late 80's, at some scummy bar in seal beach...

The bass player had a big green upright....

I got a big orange upright.....copycat!!

It's funny as they describe them as sounding like "Hippy violent femmes"....but as I recall they sounded a lot like very early Adam and the ants...kind of rockabilly, kind of punk...like "car trouble" or "kick".

We were drunk and giving the singer some crap, heckling, that kind of thing (I was with my band mates that night) . What a guy! He came down to our table and hung out with us anyway, drank with us!

Shag is literally one of my favorite artists in the world, along with Yanneger and people on this forum like Squid, C-al, B-Ben, cammo and LLT...
