Preview: Descendents @ Santa Monica Civic Auditorium
December 19, 2011
Excited is an extreme understatement to describe my feelings toward having the opportunity to shoot The Descendents last night in Santa Monica.
Liveage! was my first live album I’ve listened to many years ago, and has since built in me a love for hardcore/punk culture and live music concerts in general.
The Descendents headlined a weekend-long festival celebrating 30 years of GoldenVoice, a concert promotions company that put on shows for the burgeoning SoCal hardcore movement, including bands like Descendents, Circle Jerks, The Ramones, Social Distortion, Bad Religion, X, and Black Flag. Unfortunately, I was unable to attend the previous nights’ shows, but I’m glad I caught the grande finale.
Speaking of Black Flag, former member Chuck Dukowski filled in on bass, with a special precursor performance with former singer Keith Morris, playing the Nervous Breakdown EP in its entirety!!
