Look at how happy they were on stage... Ain't no greater joy than being 16 or 17 years old and playing in a band with your friends. And top it off by having a big gig outside in front of a loving crowd during the summer...Sublime Nirvana🤘🏾🎹🤘🏾
I think the best video I seen is when Junkyard was in Maine at a music festival! The crowd was mostly all white but was having so much fun!! Good Go-Go music does that to anybody!!
I want the broadcasters around the world I hope everybody will get into the Go-Go move unbroken dis live I hope a lot of people like this music it really is from Washington DC
OMGOODNESS… Gene, Mike, David, Will, Buggs, Bruce… I use to have so much fun dancing to junk and singing in the Ballou choir with some of these guys. Rest In peace Heavy One 🙏🏽.
i grew up in ne dc in the 80s. This brings me back. used to be kids playing buckets on the mall. that beat. like the warm glow of the dc street lights that make the night sky purple. some things you wont find anywhere else. i really needed this old school dc love today. thank you for posting.
I am from Oakland CA but I went to middle school and a lil bit of high school in the DMV Maryland area awwwwww 212 JYB was my favorite Go Go Band and still is they are the best of the best period
Us not knowing and having no one to teach us about THE LORD JESUS🤔and satan the devil. No one teaching us how to pray and what to pray🤔. No one constantly in our faces, our ears, and our head every chance they get and got to tell us about THE LORD JESUS🤔 and satan the devil. Not having our teachers in school while we were there bout 7 hours a day 5 days a week teaching us about good and evil🤔. Not telling us that if we do evil in GODS' sight what happens and when we do good in the sight of THE LORD JESUS what happens🤔. Them teaching us their history instead of our (The Bible) history🤔
People were more willing to talk and there were social boundaries. We have no social boundaries and one reason is the internet. People get that computer courage and can create any type of drama with no reprecussions from a distance. Over time the hive mentality of thinking leads to social contagions and this is where we are now. If someone can tap into emotions and post something others emotional attach to it goes viral (Race, Religon, ect...) some people don't even think about right versus wrong when their emotions are involved.
wow… i played for the new era (bounce beat) and this is wayyyy better! look at the chemistry, stage presence, crowd interaction.. these cats was getting it! wish i was born in the 80s.. can’t believe i use to think new school gogo was better smh

So you mean to tell me the boy with his shirt off is the same boy who alpo said was killing anything moving in DC? And has about 6-7 bodies? Ain’t no way bruh
It’s just crazy to me how today’s rappers be doing the most having all types of weapons tryna look hard then u look at the way this dude dancing n singing u would think he’s the black Justin Timberlake when he’s a real notorious killer. Smh we’re really living in a different time
@@aim7304 FX , TV Channel just started a series on Friday's called Hip-Hop Uncovered. And it chronicles the lives of the true gangsters, D-boys, and girl who financed the rappers and the true muscle behind the industry. These rappers are just telling their stories to a beat.(Rick Ross, Gotti, 50-cent, Noriega etc etc. All copied other's names. Shorty Pop's run ended when his head was blown off outside of the Classic's Night Club. in Camp Springs Maryland. D.C. metro area
Alpo said that about Lil Pop, that's interesting because Lil Pop introduced Wayne Perry to Alpo and Perry was the one killing anything moving in DC. Perry became Alpo's enforcer until Alpo lied and snitched on him to save himself. Wayne Perry is the most notorious killer in DC history. Lil Pop was 15 about to turn 16 during this performance in 1987 and he was wanted for 2 murders. In 1989 at 17 he was DC Most Wanted Murder Suspect and was arrested with 3 murders, 2 assaults, and 1 rape. After he did some time, he got out and at 19 he killed notorious drug dealer Domencio Benson in 1991 for Wayne Perry at the request of Alpo. Lil Pop was killed less than 2 years after the killing of Domencio Benson. They believe one of those murders of a drug dealer in 1987 is what caused him to get his face blown off and they emptied an AK 47 into him. It was also believed that Pop got killed at the order of a DC enforcer for killing Domencio Benson. You did not want to be in DC in the late 80's and early 90's, it was rough and major players were using young kids to kill anybody for money.
@TheRealist 811 nope they in the movie dc cab in 1982 playing on buckets at the very beginning of movie they were. Much younger in the movie kids at the time also seen them open up in 1983 for ayre rayde and redds in the boys in silver spring in 83 bus stop club
@@dopemandreams thanks, they really don't have that much footage of him performing with the band. I just want to see him.in a different light then what all the documentaries depict him as. Did you know him?
Alfonso Claiborne right everybody say he was really in the streets catching bodies and they say he was jive and have quick tempor what somebody told me.
I was here - age 14; we rode our bikes from Anacostia. It was a hot ass day, but fun!!!
Legendary video of Buggs, Wink, Heavy One, Shorty Pop, Pratt, Mike, Baker, 32 Dave all in this video bringing back memories in the good ol dayz.
Which one is Shorty Pop ???
@@ItsP00kie was he not in the stripes & hat?
@@ItsP00kieblue pants no shirt
The Whole Damn Crew.....
I thought that was Dave with the striped shirt! The era is before me, I didn't know he used to crank with Junk.
miss those days GO GO was all you heard around DC ,
Look at how happy they were on stage...
Ain't no greater joy than being 16 or 17 years old and playing in a band with your friends. And top it off by having a big gig outside in front of a loving crowd during the summer...Sublime Nirvana🤘🏾🎹🤘🏾
Crazy how some of em were stone cold murderers
The crank is relentless here. Absolutely all gas, no brakes.
People have no idea how hard gogo was to get out back then yet this is the best gogo all time
JYB bringing all types together even back then!!!
David Finch It’s kinda wild to think that JYB and RE played a show at my middle school in like ‘95.
I love this video JUNKYARD was my favorite band around that year or in the 90s I am 81 baby
This is a straight classic.....
I think the best video I seen is when Junkyard was in Maine at a music festival! The crowd was mostly all white but was having so much fun!! Good Go-Go music does that to anybody!!
Li’l old lady was ruffing it off up front, and that’s the ONLY go-go I’ve ever seen crowd-surfing!! Incredible!!
Saw it too. Crowd surf at the end was totally tubular
MY GENERATION..grooving..THIS is how we used to do it..80s ..FOREVER
Oh for sure JYB been on the block since day 1. Real smooth on Def Jam & as featured in the movie Tougher than Leather. #Str8legit
#DCgogoUnited
I want the broadcasters around the world I hope everybody will get into the Go-Go move unbroken dis live I hope a lot of people like this music it really is from Washington DC
They are having so much fun and cranking!!! Real deal DC!
Just seeing Heavy One at the end for a few seconds gave me chills. He was the heart and soul of JY. Made me wanna do it. R.I.P. Will Barrel...

Fond memories of getting my mind blown away by the GoGo beat. So much heavy.
My first exposure to Go Go was a JB performance in D.C. when I was a kid. My mom took me to see them.

Fun fact shorty pop with blue pants and no shirt was a vicious killer at a very young age running around with wayne Perry and alpo Martinez
Is that really shorty pop? He looks like him, but I wasn’t sure.
I think lil dude already had a few bodies at the time of this recording.
Sad but very true
@@omariwest9068yup thats most definitely him

That's why I always loved Junk. The gogo was raw and uncut with fun and smiles on everyone's faces

Shout out to the Band & D.C. from the great state of Georgia....
Having met Buggs and Wink this brings joy to my heart!!!! I've heard the stories how they played on buckets. These men been down from day one1

Junkyard's crank is top 3 for me.

Yep. He’s back playing with them as of now. Started with them
Wow that is 32 who played for NEG.
Yeah thats him, he started out with Junk Yard in the 80's before you hooked up with NEG
When I use to see JYB back in the day in Georgetown, I never saw 32. The other cowbell player who was taken away from us was always there.
Junkyard was getting ready to take GO-GO to the next level in the 90s. 1987, them ,NEG and BYB were taking the Baton from RE , Chuck and EU.
Now which one of these youngsters is the killer?
😎💪🏿
😊😌☺
Damn young,is that Dave aka 32 with the stripe shirt on playing the cowbell lol....young af
