I Love Finding Newly-Surfaced Video Of Shows I Was At: 08/08/97 Druel @ First Avenue, Minneapolis, MN

I first posted this flyer and ticket back in August 2009. It's for an August 1997 Suicidal Tendencies show at First Avenue in Minneapolis. I was there.

Here's what I said about this show when I originally posted the flyer...

"I don't remember much in particular about this show except that Druel (one of the best ever from Minneapolis) kicked major league ass and Suicidal Tendencies seemed to be a shadow of their former self - they were not very good on this particular evening."

Well! Fuckin' Hooray for Youtube! A few years later, some sweet video has surfaced (apparently from someone associated with the band) that proves my memory correct - Druel DID kick some serious ass that evening!

This seems to be a full set video (in 3 parts), so go grab something cold to drink, kick back in your computer chair, press play and witness for yourself.

Or, if you prefer, you can just hit the play button, crank it up nice and loud...wait for the right minute when the music moves you just so....and then proceed to destroy the room!
