- I think LA's KABC won some award with this short documentary on how punk rock is destroying families -- somehow missing the point that family dysfunction is the culprit, not Lee Ving. Nice shots of a Fear concert. This ran as a week-long 5-part special report on the KABC-TV news, and then ran alone late one night as an expanded special.
So let me get this straight... the parents read their daughter's diary and can't believe she doesn't trust them... and somehow "punk" is ruining their family. I think a lack of logical thinking and mutual respect are more likely culprits, but that's just silly ole me.
'but its guarenteed to scare any parent who see's it' what! My dad dropped me and my buds off at a D.O.A. show back in the day and he came in to see the show and he told me 'this is fucking awesome!'
Saw Fear back in the 80's when I was a kid. Best show ever.
I want to hear the whole live video of that performance.
twenty 5 years later, im hear drinking a cheap bottle of wine
Here not hear.
This comment is so funny dude holy shit... like it's so out of context 🤣
Good FEAR footage.

I remeber when fear performed on Saturday night...It was a wake up call for the world!!!
New York's Alright, if you like saxaphones!!
I fucking love FEAR. Lee Ving forever!
...those crazy kids!...
Back then if a show was priced at 8.50 it would be an all day show of 5 to 8 bands. Typically a 1 band show would be just a couple of bucks if that. This was a lot of money for us then.
"Believe it or not, this is not a full scale riot..." HA!
"When their kids turn into punks" HAHA great speech by lee ving by the way
I'm 58 and spent many minutes in mosh pits and as a skinny dude who got knocked down a lot, big dudes would always pick me up, awesome experience
52.....Social Distortion w/ Crippled by Society....open act....1989 we took a Greyhound from Laredo Texas to San Antonio...
.always helped out a fellow punker up from the floor......
Punk IS family
Know your enemies...
...Tony Danza got me a job!...
Awesome how it had to be fear as the featured band
This was our scene not scary not tragic and not blind...We were the revolt generation...Not the generation that were close minded...we had and still have freedom to disagree with politicians and government.
BEEF BEEF BEEF !!! BEEF BALOGNA !!!!
I love the The MINUTE MEN! don't get no better than Mike Watt and R.I.P. D.Boon!
Speaking as a child of the seventies...
I bought his solo album based on that song and only still like that song but here we are rocking fear
@59TV i have seen Fear twice, never thought about going to a Ruch concert....
This is hilarious. The times have changed.
Bet nobody fucked with Lee Ving back in the day
whats wrong with having fun controlled violence is right, who cares if people think they are all fighting each other they arent and thats what matters its just fun. i wish i lived in this time period
That was a TON of money back then . I was at this show in feb '82
have a beer with fear
hahaha in the subtitles: 'no more s_ _ _ a _ _ philosophy'
"No More (inaudible)"
My dad grew up going to punk shows so he knows what's going on and not worried
my parents bearly let Mr get a mohwak
Bearly.. lol.
that looks so fun.
FEAR=GENIUS!
@badsign1980 It's not over, man, it's just very underground... fuck, I'm going to see a punk show in less than a week, and I will make sure to have a great time!!
If you actually bothered to watch the video and listen to what Lee Ving said you would realize you are wrong. They ARE being realistic and that's what makes it effective at showing how fucked up the world is.
"Fear's music is satire, grotesque satire but satire nonetheless. That's probably not much comfort for parents if their kids are young, unsophisticated and take the punk message seriously."
@fakeis751, that's exactly what me and my friends did! It was the greatest advertising and airplay for punk at the time!!!
There is no sound here.
+Carl Nieves Yes there is.
I grew up listening to this band one of my favorite hardcore bands.
true
it's pretty hard to destroy something thats already broken
I lol'd
All this debate over FEAR. It was a large joke. It was an Andy Kaufman type prank. Stop waxing poetic on this.
Mr Body!
my dad was a this concert
Nice.
A Collectiv Unfair? Yeah, well so what. Its hard to get any sort of popularity in music that isnt aggressive.
A Collectiv Unfair? Its not like its serious anyways. The FBI CIA and NSA funded Punk in the first place as a gang accident of activism. Its entirely supposed to be meaningless fun. - XXX
A Collectiv Unfair? Modern day Johnny Cash. Right on. Long live Rock 'n' Roll.
as reported by Paul Moyer, a wannabe poorman's Tom Snyder
Censored from 5:31 "NO MORE PLASTIC!"
Yeah, now with bands like Green Day.
Why punks and parents clash in a "suburban battle zone" I'm laughing my ass off. At least there are some decent FEAR clips.
it frustrates me that the media used parents as the excuse to shut down and completely destroy a good wholesome scene. As if all parents really saw this as a negative thing.
I don't believe in peace.
haah kid was washing his face and they make him look like hes suffering
Hilarious
ah perfect needed this for my dissertation on Punk, needed something else apart from American Hardcore telling me how shit the entire of America is.
Lmao! I can't take this documentary seriously.
damn you 240p.....
I was taking the piss Bud,your right.And I need help :) nice come back but...I dont care about you!!
Hahaha. Looks like an MK ULTRA advert. All the friendly buzz words are mentioned.
You, really had no idea did you.
fear is real bad
It was ALL a put on, a total joke & they were getting away it. FEAR is a joke on the audience.
You have to admit, the lyrics for We Destroy the Family are pretty irresponsible on the part of the band. I like the song, but too many kids are stupid and would take the lyrics to heart.
I remember seeing this on the news when I was 13. I cut my long hair and started listening to Black Flag, Circle Jerks, and FEAR. It seemed like everyone in So.Cal was getting into the scene. This is where all the action was! I miss those days.
Unreal. Sometimes I forget just how amazing punk… was.
The good old days before punk was PC.
Was at this Fear show at what use to be Devonshire Downs here in the SFV in early 82.. I had just turned 22 and was on the streets. Punk rock doesn't destroy the family, a sick family unit eats itself from within. In my case it was with an alcoholic, violent father. Of course I loved this music, it matched the rage and hate I felt every hour of every day, but I'm talkin' the power of the music, I took the lyrics for what they were, great parody and satire. Stupid folks can't seem to figure that out, but the kids(most of them) can.. What music I listened to isn't what would fuck up my mind, it was the constant bullshit in my family and school. Yet what bothered my mother most is if I played a Fear record and hearing the lyric "piss on yer warm embrace, I just wanna cum in your face". The damage had already been done long before I brought Black Sabbath, or Fear, or Dead Kennedys records into the house, hell I was already dropping acid at 14 just to get away from my reality. But that was then, this is now...
Well said. That was pretty much the case for me too, except for me it was a violent alcoholic mom. My dad was out of the picture by the time I was 8 years old. The family was already destroyed, and I never had any say in the matter. I was pissed off 24-7 and punk provided the perfect release for my pent-up aggressions. I could go to a show and get all that shit out of my system for a couple of hours. Less expensive than seeing a shrink and a LOT more fun. I guess I was fortunate in one way though - punk never freaked out my mom the way it freaked out so many other parents back then. She had been a wild kid herself in the 60’s and at least understood that the stuff I was into was better than living a lie by conforming to the preppie world because that’s what I was supposed to do. Plus she never bought into the media’s sensationalized bullshit take on punks. Now I’m in my 50’s and have a family of my own, wife and son... and we’re thick as thieves. Punk taught me to get that part right. So much for punk “destroying the family”.
LEE VING IS GOD!
And SoCal Gets Some Love Too! Equal Opportunity Offenders The Mighty FEAR!
LOL...that's awesome.....The decline of western civilization Part I
Lolol so glad I grew up a GenXer in the 80s. I'm 50 now and still listen to FEAR and punk rock everyday whether in my rig or on my Harley
"it's a daily crisis"
hahaha
remember when the world ended back then??
me neither
No, none of us - as I saw in S.F. - helped bums but we left them alone. All of the bands back then sang about the realism of the Reagan years, politics, and the breakdown of American society during this period.
Fear wasn't a peace punk band like Crucifix or Circle One who sang against the mindless violence that perpetrated the scene but even they sang about realism. It wasn't much difference than Sham 69 or Conflict in England.
what if your parents are punk?
I always laugh about how punks were portrayed in the 80s.
Good music era! But with all trends and fashions, you learn, if you are wise, that this was just a part of a bigger psy op to break up the family. Looking at today, how far it has come, it is obvious these were the beginning stages.
sooo muthafuckin incredible!
FUCKK, IF I WAS A KID IN THE EARLY 80S AND I SAW THIS I WOULD BE FUCKING RUNNING TO THE NEXT FEAR GIGGG
"I love livin in the city!"
I'm 30 and I still listening to them
Guess what? You're wrong. I should know......I was the bum Lee helped out.
remember when Elvis was considered possessed by the devil by many parents? Probably there kids turned into the parents objecting to this.. its a primal engery as youths we are drawn to... way more than the lyrics.. happens every generation... i dont like all this hippity hoppity rap crap the kids are into but i wont be a hippicrate and tell em they cant listen to it.
NO MORE (INAUDABLE) !!!! ,i was a young teenager who took the punk rock message seriously. It destroyed my life and family. I now owe it to God to repent and ask for his forgiveness. Accept Christ B4 it's to late. Jesus is the eternal trustfunder, Parents are the enemy, and NO MORE NOTHINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Punkers. I hated being called a punker.
I am a skinhead.
The kids were either skins or skaters. We liked the hardcore punk of our times.
Punk rock was the 1970's. Kids of the early 80's we ruled.
A daily crisis? What were yer parents doing behind closed doors? The 80's were void and this is the only outlet kids had!!!
Greatest Publicity for Punk was that your parents were supposed to be scared of it!
If you go to any popular concert now it is nothing like that
This made me laugh
oh fucking wah
No more Scientology
Awesome !
Yes
these guys were comody,haha....haha
FEAR doesnt give a fuck about bums
@KarlMcMAn Me too. In fact, they are even more relevant now, than they were back then. I play Live...For the Record at least 1nce a month.
me to but its so fucking funny
lol hes just washing his face
Country Club?
Wow, was 1980's america like the fucking middle east in terms of humour. Fear's Schtick is so obviously sarcastic and is definitely intended to piss people off (that's a big part of their appeal), how dense do these reporters have to be not to figure that out?
1980s fear would still scare and confuse the majority of people today
No more nothin...
@fakeis751 I did!!!!
you need help :)
Oh nevermind
