These shows from 1984 were two of the best of the 80's fresno punk scene. Rock Haven was a big house with a dance hall out back that could hold about 150 people and was made entirely out of River rock. It was quite unusual and I think it’s still out there on the corner of Peach and North avenues, south of Fresno. A Thursday and Friday night, back to back gigs, headlined by 45 Grave from LA and Tales of Terror from Sacto one night, then The DKs from SF and The Freeze from Boston the night. Also, 6 local bands played support over the two nights. I made the flyer and helped put the show together. I remember thinking how short everyone in 45 Grave was compared to how they looked on tv's New Wave Theater. Red John's first gig after moving to Fresno. |
