1984 The Clash opening band was THE CRAZY 8's. THey were my favorite band. I saw the 8's many many more times. They originated from Corvallis OR. Finally they are getting a little web presence. Not nearly what they deserve. I spent years trying to find any of there cds. I finally did, and then just a few months ago at the Eugene Celebration I heard they got back together after breaking up in 1992. I went, rocked out right in front, yelled my head off, then met up backstage and met the band and went out partying with them. Coolest night ever next to partying with Kid Rock several months before that. I brought along one of my old concert shirt from the 8/8/88 tour and had them sign it. No one could believe that I still had it. It was cool.
THey will be playing one more time in Portland OR on New Years Eve. I will do everything in my power to go to that, but I forgot to ask them where it would be.
