Trashball 010608: Drink Ticket Talisman


So, among my Trashball stock, I came across this 1982 drink coupon from the 9:30 Club, which was very important to the development of the famous DC punk scene. After extensive research (okay, about 15 minutes) online, I was unable to find out who played on the night of September 2, 1982. But around this time you could regularly see acts like Bad Brains, Minor Threat, and I discovered that young REM played a gig there in November '82.

I was about 5 months old on Sept 2, 1982 :)

Well, that still makes you older than my long-suffering insufferable wife.
