You know when you’re a teenager and music is everything to you? Then you go to a concert and it’s a life-changing event?
That happened to me in 1988 when SNFU came to Winnipeg. I was 17, and I haven’t been the same since (for the better).
Now someone’s posted a video of the concert to YouTube.
For 25 years, they’ve been my favorite band.
I may not be the same after watching it.

Malibu Kens - Be My Barbie 7”, Edmonton, AB, 1981.
“This is one of the first independent punk singles from Edmonton. Blank Generation might possibly have beaten them to the racks, but at this point Edmonton’s best known punk band, SNFU, didn’t yet exist as such. The Malibu Kens formed in 1980 under the name Joey Did and the Necrophiliacs, and became the Malibu Kens by 1981. Shortly after the name change, the band’s style changed from punk to pop.”
