Dwight Twilley (June 6, 1951 – October 18, 2023). He died two weeks ago. RIP.

Esther Wong saved my guitar from being stolen. She was the best

This is so cool. I'm a 30 year old Black woman from the Deep South and rock music (punk music in particular) has always resonated with me since I was a little girl. I'm really glad this documentary touches on the fact that punk is not just about skinny young white dudes, it's for everyone and there are no rules. Edit: By the way, I don't wanna come off like young white dudes can't enjoy punk, I was mostly referencing the N*zi imagery and the racist gangs that used punk music as a bit of a manifesto of hate.

I am in this picture at 4:41 My friends Pat Quinn and Dave Harding are in there too. We are watching China White at The Starwood in 1980.

OMG they should totally do a movie on Madame Wong and her life and how she got totally embroiled in the punk scene. What an awesome story!
-
As a native Detroiter and a person from that scene, I have to say, kudos to the negative approach sweatshirt! 🤘
-
I was a roadie for The Orphans in 80s. Madam Wongs was my world. I was 15! You still look great Alice!
-
Catholic Discipline, The Bags, DOA ! My first punk show. Chuck Biscuits, the drummer for DOA was just 16 yrs. of age. His mother let him tour as long as he kept up with his schoolwork!
-
Chinese New Year @ Wongs, Cafe & Chinatown is a top memory in my life, the punk bands, the acid,the fireworks, the dancing human dragons writhing through the square, top notch🐉🎇🎆🎸🥁🎤🎹Stuart...so much better than dinner with parents in early 70's🤣

My band SofaMusik playing the Hong Kong with The Blasters and Gun Club. Fun place!! Great doc!
-
The photographs are amazing and show a better picture of how Punk was back at its glory in Los Angeles. Awesome documentary!
-
Another fantastic doc. The Police and The Motels playing in one Chinatown restaurant vs bands like X, Germs and Circle Jerks in another joint a few doors down.
-
I've been watching punk documentaries for years whenever I come across new ones and this is a story that really needed told. There was so much new information here. Great stuff.
-
I was always the guy passed out upstairs and dragged downstairs and thrown out in the courtyard. Thank you Alex, Tom, Roxie and Scott. Oh, and Dee.
-
I think it’s funny that Keith morris is wearing a negative approach hoodie. I went to the circle jerks/negative approach show in Pittsburgh at mr smalls. That’s awesome!!
-
Gorgeous Documentary brought tears!! This was a time that will never be again !!😢
-
I don't think I missed many X gigs at the Hong Kong Cafe. It was an exciting time.
-
I was there, it makes me so sad to be old now, fear used to put me on the guest list at the starwood, bless all those great bands, what a scene......
-
PBS needs to do the story of the Mabuhay Gardens in San Francisco. The Punk/New wave scene started there in December of 1976.

Only halfway through this video and I can relate to this place to a certain degree. Maybe once or twice in a lifetime, you will find a bar/music venue that just works and feels right. I have been so fortunate. Being in on a scene as it’s emerging, is a privilege and potentially very fun.
