I booked these guys for a halloween party bash one time. They lived in tx and i was in cali. They played the show for airfare for all the members. I picked them up from the airport during the show. I had free kegs, all day bbq for carnivores and veggies, show was 5 bux 12 bands. We made enough to pay everyone that invested $ in the show plus the band. I lost about $350 i invested but didn't care. It was a legendary show and they were excellent people as well as great live. We actually got sound permits and block party permits for the show so it couldn't be shut down. The few times the cops did show up we had runners at the door that would walk through the crowd and let the underage kids know to ditch or hide their beers. It was a great show and i don't regret a damn thing about it. Great guys and nikki is still the coolest dude. Solid guy.
@@ralphtom3431 I didn't but others did. The lineup(if i remember it) was: ghoul, butt trumpet, mutual abuse, destroy everything, instant asshole, suburban death camp(i think?), case of emergency(i think?), and i honestly can't remember the rest. I don't have a flyer from the show(even tho i made a bunch). Really bummed i dont have a flyer from it cuz it was seriously an amazing show.

I got into Verbal Abuse because of SLAYER,and hardcore punk rock,this album is my favorite hardcore album by far,the loud,fast,angry style,it got me through the worst four years of my life:high school,in the mid 2000s,thank you SLAYER and Verbal Abuse 🤘👍
got known of this album in the early 90ies as *bitzcore records* based in germany rereleased it. a short hardcore punk revivals was going on at those times here in german speaking lands. still amazing in my ears!
Saw them in 86'. Power kept going out due to the generator failing in the condemned house they were playing in. Great show anyway. It was one of the earlier HC shows I ever saw. So glad I caught the tail end of the classic hardcore era (85'-87')
Don't know how Scotty managed to do Nikki Sikki's job but he did it and did it well. 491 Guerrero beach forever. I'm one of the Rugrats across the street he would let carry a mike stand or a cymbal or a couple drumsticks in to a show so we could get in for free. I guess technically we were roadies for Verbal Abuse,put that on a resume if we ever looked for jobs. Fuck ups and Fuckett's are the ones that we would give cases of Pepsi "found" at the old plant around the corner in exchange for a 12 pack of beer they could get for it at the corner store. They always did us right and looked out for us when we were like 10 or 11 years old, shaping our impressionable minds into the Anarchist shit disturbers that we are. Thank you.
No Better than Slayer !! This Is Hardcore not Speedmetal ! (R.I.P. Jeff Hanneman) ... Do Not Compare Metal with Punk o.K. !!! Different Style, Different Attitude, Complete Different Music although Slayer covered It with a more modern Sound it doesn't have That HC Feeling as 'The Abuse' .
@@nomessnofussjustpureimpact4771 Slayer is definitely the most metal mutha's ever... But I'm pretty sure if Jeff was still alive he would tell you this stuff is the base material for Thrash. Especially Slayer's brand of Speed Thrash.

@@USmarinePunk but still, two legendary Texas bands!
@GorillaKook5.5666 my friends and I are fortunate for sure. We got to see some killer bands back in the day.

Un "classique"...Je l'écoute encore à l'heure d'aujourd'hui....
Literally arguing with people who said that Good Charlotte are punk. Jesus Christ. Sometimes I feel like I'm crazy. ANd then I hear Verbal Abuse.
Incredible isn't it. Good Charlotte is pure garbage 🗑️
Some of the very best . Hard act to beat . The real deal .
Legends!

They were supposed to play with nofx and Life Sentence in SLC. VA never showed up. I was bummed.
Oh well I saw them nonce
Actually I saw them in 2018 in Brooklyn they were awesome
@skinheadyouth66 Rad. The show I am talking about was in 1988. Cheers.
@@skinheadyouth66 I have a Blitz Voice of a Generation t shirt. I'm almost 54. Wtf? 🍻
Left coast always kicked ass back then. Rock On Broadway, The Farm, Ruthy's. My misspent youth!

@@AUTOPSY666 lmao! No doubt!
Pity just 16min.
so good but not as Sick Pleasure..
Love va but yeh yet right
Excel copied the drum beats from the song "Power Play" on their song "Drive". Total ripoff.
I love how that late 70's and early 80's punk sounds EXACTLY like Slayer... but NOT as good!
Slayer covered them. Just in case that wasn’t a terrible joke. They liked punk.
@@louierodriguez5770 Of of course they did my first layer CD was undisputed attitude! All Slayer is is harder punk with blazing guitars!

Slayer are posers and is music for posers. The original sounds way better than the wack Slayer cover. Hardcore is better than wack metal
