Personal Angle: I moved away long ago, but I'm originally from California's oft-derided San Joaquin Valley. I cling to this single image as proof that my favorite punk band once played a gig there, far from their sleazy North Beach comfort zone. 1980, which plunks it right in the middle of their "Maserati/Gangster Funk" period. #1980s #Punk #SFPunk #Stockton

Friday Afternoon Update: I've got a broken tooth, a Monday morning deadline, and am disappointed that I was drawn into an internet controversy that I really, truly don't care about (now that I think of it). But on the brighter side, this exists. #KilledByDeath #Punk #Records #SFPunk

Another Friday pic (consider this a signal flare to draw the attention of all the 1970s Obscuro-Punk enthusiasts). Enhanced snap of the “Frustration/Murder by Guitar” line-up of Crime (as always, San Francisco’s First & Only Rock ‘n’ Roll Band). Johnny Strike was a good guy. Original photo by James Stark. #KilledByDeath #Punk #SanFrancisco #SFPunk

Poor-quality scan of a nicotine-stained original. The Dils were brothers Chip & Tony Kinman - originally from Carlsbad, transplanted to SF. This 1978 Xerox flyer advertises a gig at Broadway's low-rent punk palace, Mabuhay Gardens, and boasts a couple don't-miss opening bands. I was at home and (probably) watching Donny & Marie on TV with my parents. #Punk #SFPunk #SanFrancisco
Let’s pause to enjoy an AI-enhanced snap of the original line-up of Crime (San Francisco’s First & Only Rock ‘n’ Roll Band), taken in 1976 at their practice studio near South Park in SF. Photographer unknown, but it was probably James Stark. These are the things that amuse me. #Punk #SFPunk #SanFrancisco
