I was at Urgh! show at the Santa Monica Civic Center. Discovered some great bands I still listen to today...Pere Ubu, Magazine, among others. Those were the days, indeed.
Still waiting for URGH to come out on DVD (with extra band footage that was shot).
IRS is owned by one of the big corporations now. They have just announced that they will FINALLY be reissuing some long out of print albums (by the Fleshtones, among others) as mp3s.
The Cramps managed to own everything else they ever did (including the artwork) and eventually reissued all that they could on their own label and worked up an large “unreleased” package but had to omit all of the IRS tracks they wanted to use.
The Urgh concerts looked interesting.
The Cramps were on one of my favorite concert lineups I’ve seen listed (I did not go to the show, it was before my time) “The Cramps, Bo Diddley, and The Clash”.
