We dedicate this episode to Dix Denny who passed away on 03/12/2023. 

The Weirdos formed in 1977 in Los Angeles, California, and are considered one of the pioneering bands of the punk rock movement. In this episode we talk to Cliff Roman, original bass player for the Weirdos about his early influences, how he helped start the band and crazy adventures throughout their history.  He also discusses when he left the group during the early 1980s, what kept him occupied and his return to punk rock. 

The original lineup of The Weirdos consisted of John Denney (vocals),  Dix Denney (guitar) and Cliff Roman (bass), and Nickey "Beat" Alexander (drums). They gained popularity by performing at legendary punk rock venues like The Masque and the Whisky a Go Go. The Weirdos' music is characterized by its fast, energetic sound and sarcastic lyrics. They released their first single, "We Got the Neutron Bomb," in 1977, followed by their debut album, "Weird World," in 1981.

On this episode we conducted a special round table with some of the most notable early 1980s punk photographers of the era, Marla Watson, Kevin Salk and Alison Braun.  The crew was happy that Marla Watson was able to conduct her interview in studio while Alison Braun and Kevin Salk called in.  They talked about the early Los Angeles hardcore punk scene and how some of the shows were very dangerous.  It was truly interesting to hear there take on the early DIY movement and how the punk community supported each other.   These photographers sometimes would put their neck on the line to get that shot.  So sit back and enjoy this epic episode.

The third and final installment of the Mendiolas Ballroom Riot series starts features Mike Magrann and Kimm Gardener of Channel 3. The show explores what Channel 3 was up to during this era of punk rock.  It dives into them witnessing this insane riot and discussed other punk riots during this era of the early 1980s.  Alison Braun, our trusted co-host, helps drive the conversation with her first-hand understanding of punk rioting.   The PRC Podcast crew also talks about their experience in punk riots during the late 1980s and 1990s. This 3-episode series is about a punk show that was held on February 11, 1983 at a venue called the Mendiolas Ballroom in Huntington Park.  One of the most violent punk rock riots during this era kicked off that evening.  Listen to our guest recall the craziness that ensued that evening from a perspective of playing and taking photos as this was part of Youth Movement 83.  There was a lot of promise of being a fun night of great music with an amazing lineup that included The Exploited, CH3, Youth Brigade, Vandals, Aggression, and Suicidal Tendencies.
