I still listen to them, was rocking an HR cd just the other day.
Saw a really good documentary a few weeks ago on punk rock in general, tons of rad footage including the Big Boys and DRI etc., it's called American Hardcore.

Thsts a cool looking doc. Im gonna see if I can buy it. Thanks for pointing it out. DRI was insane. I saw them live. I lived about two hours south of SF so I was luckily able to see many of these bands.
I still have all that stuff including tons and tons of punk band demo tapes etc., I had a nieghbor who lived next door to me who used to supply me with random cassettes all the time, stuff like DOA, Angry Samoans, DI, DK, Subhumans, Agnostic Front, and so on and so on. I kept it all and even break it out from time to time, still have all my old death metal on vinyl as well. I saw a few of them as well, most of the time we would just hang out in front of the venue and listen from outside as we were just kids and too broke to buy tickets...sigh....those were the days
Cool! Some of that is probably super valuable to the right collector although it might just have more sentimental value to it. I also had quite a bit but ended up selling it when I had to move. It was too much to carry long distance.
Yep! I did the "hang outside" thing also. I was able to get into "The Farm" in San Francisco which was a youth center back in the late 80s and many Punk bands played there. Also "The Stone" was another good one.
