The Misfits and Reagan Youth played at the Northampton County Community College in 1982. I remember Reagan Youth was amazing ,played a blistering set ,some of the crowd didn't get it,most were there eagerly awaiting the Misfits.
Hardcore was still undefined at this point no one had the same thrashing/slam dance/pogo style it was a creative free for all.
The handbook wasn't written yet. Misfits played a complete set of all their classics,this was" Walk Among Us" era . Some highlights:138,skulls,die,die ,die my darling,Mommy,Hatebreeders and on and on.
My friend Eric and I bummed a ride to the show since we did not have a car or drive yet,(we would have ridden our skateboards to this show if we had to!)8 miles away!
Talked to some punk girls, if you met girls that were punk/hardcore you were stoked !
Here is a guitar pick from the show. I didn't own a camera yet so no photo's ,damn!
Black Flag was going to be the next show at NCCC ,never happened I think the school might have been scared to allow another show that they could not understand.
