shit hopefully dumbfest sticks around then cause there is not much. I would be happy to set one up in bloomington IN I would definitely need some help if anyone is into that idea lemme know and we can talk
i was thinking of farting into jars, sealing and selling them. sometime in the future, people could open the jars, sniff my farts, and i assume they would be preserved.
i would be willing to donate some farts in a jar for your cause.
how many can i sign you up for?

This doc is about the club scene in New Jersey, but is heavy on New Brunswick where I grew up.
The Red Fox Inn in North Brunswick is disappointingly not covered here. That was THE first club that let punk bands play in New Jersey. The Dictators, the Ramones, all the New York bands did their first Jersey gigs there. Plus all the local punk bands around New Brunswick played there (Harlow, Suicidal Swingers, Steel Tips, the Rozz). The staff were all hippies that didn't totally get punk, but they let any original and left field bands have a go in the era where Jersey was all clubs doing cover bands.

This clip of the documentary mentions the Main Event which is what the Red Fox became after it closed in 1980.
Harlow was the popular band at the Red Fox. They gigged there as early as '74 (maybe even '73?). They were a nasty glam band who did a lot of covers at first (Bowie, T. rex). they were basically Jersey's New York Dolls who had a sound that was predicting the punk sound. One of their members Billy was in the pre Dee Snyder Twisted Sister also (he died last year), the bass player Mike was in the Cramps for a minute too. I think all the members of the band are now dead actually.
thanks a lot for sharing this. are you aware of a documentary done on the NJHC band Mental Abuse? Supposedly a doc exists but its hard to google and I got no leads.
They made a movie back in the 80's, entertainingly bad acting. I know Syd and used to see Dave here and there but haven't talked in years now. Syd lives in Delaware now, we hang in Jersey when he's got a show to play up here, one of a kind guy
Oh wow I didn't know it was an actual movie. I gotta get my hands on that thanks for the info
No shit: "The Boss" actually came out and jammed with Social Distortion at a show a few years ago. So it's not that far fetched.
