Riot

The energy of a riot,

Pulsing, raising, demanding,

Pushing for something to change,

Derailed, confused, lost,

Turning back to it's beginning,

Anger, fear, resolution,

To make a solid, backed, threat,

Change, change for good, change for tomorrow.

Let's hope they can work again

Let's hope they don't have to.

Three images from 1979, when Midwesterners decided that any band not sounding identical to Styx or Kiss or Ted Nugent therefore needed to be wiped off the map, or at least have their records ceremoniously burned in a huge bonfire at Comiskey Park in Chicago (which--surprise, surprise!--devolved into a riot). In 2-3 years that followed, The Knack's sophomore album would sell just 1/8th the amount of copies as their monumental debut; the most popular disco musicians would gradually drop off the singles and albums charts and "go underground" (although disco eventually got the last laugh on the stadium-rock cretins, when it got gloriously reborn inside the grooves of house music, Detroit techno, new wave, and even hip-hop); and oh yeah, Styx's next album release was the universally maligned KILROY WAS HERE, while Kiss (sporting new shag haircuts) tested the waters of the Deep Concept Album through an atrocity called THE ELDER, and Ted Nugent would become one of the biggest douchebags of the century, hating blacks and gays and Democrats and sometimes bragging in interviews about shitting his pants to avoid the draft. And come on, we KNOW what all this eventually is leading to. Photos: (1) Knuke the Knack sack, buttons, and T-shirt, 1979; (2) Record-burners in "Disco Sucks" T-shirts, Comiskey Park, Chicago; (3) More young whites at Comiskey about to blow up some black music
