Hey there! Let me tell you about this awesome music venue called 924 Gilman Street in Berkeley, California. It’s not just any venue, it’s the birthplace of Lookout! Records and some incredible bands. We’re talking about Operation Ivy, Green Day, and Samiam, just to name a few!
Now, let’s talk about Bad Religion. These guys have rocked the stage at Gilman St. not once, not twice, but five times! Can you believe it? They played on January 23, 1988, and they were joined by The Web, Dead Jacksons, Weeny Roast, and Vincent Van Go Go. And that’s not all! They also played on December 17, 1988, with Inner Strength, No Use For A Name, and Spent.
But wait, there’s more! Bad Religion rocked the stage on April 22, 1989, alongside NOFX, Lethal Gospel, Mr. Lucky, and Necromancy. And on October 21, 1989, they were joined by Preachers That Lie, The Grim, Downfall, and NOFX.
And guess what? They even played on April 20, 1990, with Creamers, The Mr. T Experience, and The Lookouts. Can you imagine the energy and excitement in that place?
