When punk rock meets feminism. This is The Bags, minus one of the original bag ladies, Pat Morrison, aka Pat Bag. In the documentary The Decline of Western Civilization, the band is referred to as Alice Bag Band, named after lead singer Alice Armendariz, aka Alice Bag. They were one of the original '77 punk rock bands in Los Angeles.
If you get nothing else out of this video, because you're not obsessed like me, at least watch from 2:22 to 2:29 when some kid tries to climb on stage and is pulled back with Alice giving him a light shove and a snarl. That attitude in her facial expression and body language says it all.
It's the beginning of 1980 and Darby Crash is still alive: 1:07
