Solid band. I typically stay away from older punk bands like the Damned, UK Subs etc. because they're on all the fucking time and it gets boring, but I got a free ticket to the Dickies and I've never seen them before so I decided to go.
I'm glad I did. There was a bit of a kerfuffle recently when they were on the Warped tour. Some women thought it would be a good idea to hold up signs in protest regarding their use of a penis puppet in one of their songs because apparently it was "sexist". They were thrown off the Warped tour and came over here. They briefly touched on it tonight, calling the crowd misogynists because they were amused by the penis puppet. The mention was met with raucous applause.
Fairly small venue, probably 100-120 max capacity. 10/10 would take copious amounts of speed instead of paying for ridiculously expensive drinks again.
Also I lost a shoe, as referenced here.
Glad to hear you got to enjoy the show. It's been ages since I've got to catch one. (Damn graveyard shift)
I just hope you weren't one of those "too cool to wiggle" to the music.
