This is really good and a perfect snapshot of the hardcore scene in the mid 1990s!
LIFETIME have been one of my favorite bands for the past 30 years, after meeting them randomly on the streets of Ann Arbor, near the University of Michigan campus, back in 1992. They were on tour for the "Background" album that was just released on New Age Records and were playing that night in Detroit. They had the BOUNCING SOULS along with them on tour, and they had only a demo tape out at this point, "What Doesn't Kill Us Only Makes Us Stronger." At least that's the title of the demo tape as I remember it, though their discogs page calls it something else. But I digress. I bought a t-shirt and the "Background" album on vinyl from the LIFETIME guys, and the demo tape from the BOUNCING SOULS.
This started a casual friendship with the guitarist of LIFETIME, Dr. Dan and I. A solid dude who has done a lot for the hardcore scene over the past 30+ years. I've seen his many bands (LIFETIME, KID DYNAMITE, PAINT IT BLACK) play all over the country since that day!
Hot damn! I've never heard a few of these versions before!
The sped up version of "The Prisoner" is incredible! As is this version of "White Man in Hammersmith Palais!" And "Stay Free" doesn't have the second guitar, the lead guitar, in it. I think this is the version from "Rude Boy" movie,
The United States Government is the number one purveyor of disinformation and fake news.
They are propagandists.
They lie to help themselves and hurt us.
They are in bed with the Military Industrial Complex.
They are in bed with Big Pharma.
They are in bed with Big Tech.
The Twitter Files episode showed us how the US government, and especially the Democrat party, censors its citizens using all manner of subterfuge & obfuscation.
They are all forked-tongue war mongers and murderers.
This is beautiful. I have looked directly at the sun before (sun-gazing) and saw this. Others have pointed their amateur telescopes at stars and seen this. Why? What are the stars REALLY made of? What is outer space REALLY made of?
