Re: “Brian Walsby's essential history of Raleigh hardcore, Manchild 5”

Came to Raleigh in 85 with a band. Morally Bankrupt playing the Brewery. Met Mike Ross and Sketch, I was a DC Hardcore Homeboy. I went by the name Banshee. I was tired of all the shit in DC and the Skin heads! Sleeping on park benches and luvboat! Mike took me to Sadlack's. I fell in love with the peace and the cool people! Met Walter Taylor and Reed at the time. I had been out West with Black Flag. Raleigh was a cool scene and had so many fine ass girls! Could not leave! Although I had Nationalist leanings and was a real asshole people kept being cool and I eventually hooked up and lived on Maiden Lane! Where are you Karen Mason? One more fucking round baby!
