Hello, old anarcho punk here from Los Angeles and Orange County area. I was introduce to the peace punk scene in late 1983. However I started to get involved in late 84 and went vegetarian in 1985. I was in high school and was involved with Student Action Corps for Animals and went to many Anti Nuclear War protest during Reagun era. Would like to network with 80's Punk Rockers who used to follow bands like Iconoclast, A State of Mind, Trial, Atrocity, Nature Core (these were all vegetarian peace punk bands from california). I'm 40 years old and would like to get in touch with old pen pals when we used to trade packages. Back then we did not have a internet. So we would trade tapes, records, zines, shirts, flyers, literatures over mail and making many trips to the post office and soaping stamps. Crazy how the technology changed and now we can download stuff online instead of spending hours making your friends a mix cassette tapes. Thanks for making this site Below news paper article is from 1984 in Orange County. Anarchist and Punks protesting against Ronald Reagun in Orange County. punks getting rock thrown and beaten up by Reagun supporters -members of Iconoclast and Body Count-
welcome! If you are still interested in tape trading let me know. It may be more convenient to download albums but I do prefer the more personal feel of making tapes for people
Welcome sir! Tape trading is something I've never done, but would like to learn how. How do you do it exactly?
I haven't done that for a long time and it takes for ever. But I will upload some demo tapes and live stuff online each week
Wow!! Cool!! It's a vocalist of band Resist And Exist. I am shaken... By the way, we even have translated their interview from zine "Profane Existence №37" on Russian for extensive acquaintance to this nice band.: http://kras-punxrevival.blogspot.com/20 ... exist.html .
