This was an awesome place to see bands play. Why? Because it was about 10 minutes from my house and all shows were just $6.00 They consistently had top notch bands too. Like; Kraut, The Dickies<\/a>, Social Distortion<\/a>, Cockney Rejects<\/a>, Uniform Choice, Fear, etc… Most of the bands that were going to play at The Olympic would play Oscar’s before or <\/span>after (but for only 100 people or so). <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

This night was Government Issue (their 1st West Coast tour) with Uniform Choice and the Dead Milkmen. Uniform Choice’s “Screaming For Change<\/a>” had just come out [I think?] and they played every song on that lp. When they were done people were yelling and screaming for more so they played a ton of Minor Threat covers! Great show. The headliner was one of my personal fav’s; Government Issue. This is a band that I listed to daily while going through high school. <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

I was 17 years old, living on my own and trying to stay in school. G.I. [and others] were my motivation to do just that. Anyway, back to the gig\u2026… They were amazing! All the hits were played and they sounded as great as I hoped…Check the photo here and see if you can see a young Roa of Justice League as well as Ryan from Chain of Strength<\/a> was there if I remember correctly? Notice how I didn’t mention The Dead Milkmen? Yeah, that’s on purpose. Yawn!<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
