Barney B Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 U2 warmed up for Slickee Boys at the Bayou. This is really The Lie That Refused to Die. Will somebody please tell Kim Kane to stop repeating this old canard? The Slickees were the warm up band. U2 were the headliner. I was there, with two roommates. So, apparently, was a guy named Tom Berard: http://u2station.com/tours/1980/12/december-7-1980---washington-district-of-columbia-usa---bayou-club.php Thankfully, Slickee Boys guitarist Marshall Keith has The Brain That Refused to Lie: http://whslionspride.com/2015/05/legendary-guitarist-marshall-keith-shares-his-history-and-love-of-music/ Great show, though. U2, for a bunch of kids who looked about 13, were very impressive, and The Slickees, as always, kicked ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USS Redskins Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Bayou story... Had tix to see Ramones and got denied at the door.. Wouldn't take our fake ids... So went went around back and climbed up on the roof and listened to the show muffled through the air conditioner vents. A few minutes in we look over and security guards are climbing up a fence to get us... I completely panic and run to the other side of the roof and climb over and drop down into the darkness... It's like 20 feet and I fall right on my ass... Omg that freaking hurt... Turns out he wasn't even a security guard, just some dude who wanted to join our party. Note... Watch "No Way Out" with Kevin Costner and the scene he is jumping off a highway overpass... The dudes chasing him jump onto the roof Of the bayou... Then they run along the canal into the nonexistent Georgetown metro stop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bang Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 I'll talk to 'em, and i'll nod deferentially, but I had more fun at Slickee Boys shows than practically anywhere else in my life. ~Bang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaceman Spiff Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Unrelated, but I just got Decline of Western Civilization Part 2 on iTunes for 10 bucks. Forgot how great this was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinsfan1311 Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Boy, did that bring back memories. I loved the Cap Centre. We saw Priest there, but I don't think it was Dokken who opened for them The only venue that I liked better, was Hammerjacks. Did anyone else have those jokers come up to while, "pre-gaming", and yell "You're busted!!" ? Then, after we finished ****ting ourselves, they'd say, "You're busted, for having a good time" and then would hand out some type of circular. And yes....I loved those 80's women....
