I saw them in Houston sometime in the early '90s. Some young punks with mohawks of impressive size were hanging out in front of the venue and made fun of my mid-thirties friends and I with “grandma and grandpa” smack. Our response was to the effect of “Maybe, but you’re here to listen to OUR music.”
