How this for noise shows? Hanatarash literally destroyed venues with excavators. Hijokaidan’s female members pissed on stage, swam in it, and threw their slop back at their audience. Whitehouse, however, had surprise police raids as one of their defining live moments. Never strangers to controversy or violence at their shows, they performed at London’s Roebuck to only three songs where Steven Stapleton was cut by a glass bottle striking him in the arm. It was during “Anal American” where police successfully raided the Roebuck but not before Whitehouse manager Jordi Vallis barricaded them out of the venue. They cut the show short and arrested many attending, even dragging one man down the stairs according to the live dossier. Was it violating the noise ordinance or how William Bennett was mistakenly accused of kidnapping then 15 year-old Philip Best when in fact he ran away to perform with the noise group? (The third member was Kevin Tompkins of Sutcliffe Jugend). You could hear Best’s pop finding him at the venue, worried sick and scolding the young lad. Best cared less: he laughed that he got it all on tape. And there you have it.
