 Shelley Ganz: Well, I’m thinking of one gig in particular. It was in San Diego and it was quite infamous. There was this rather large show, which featured The Bangs, and Salvation Army, and us. It was a huge show. There were a ton of mods, and there were these scummy skinheads that were there. I don’t think they did a thing when The Salvation Army and The Bangs were on. Then we go on and they start fighting with us, so go figure! And they’re throwing stuff and dousing us…I was soaked in beer, and my bass player gets punched, and it turned into a riot! So either we provoked them, or it was the hair; or a combination of things. But it was a full-blown riot! But the worst part of it is that once the riot ensues, I become aware that the Highway Patrol is outside, and I said, “Please come in, there’s a riot inside!” So he comes in, and the idiot who put the show on tells me that the Highway Patrol is the “enemy” and the punks were the “security.” It was staggering and stunning — the mentality of the time.
