So, not only did I do two posts in a row about the Plasmatics, I’m now also doing two posts in a row about Cop Shoot Cop. Please feel free to leave your compaints in the comments section, should you so desire.
Back in June of 2021, I stumbled upon a tantalizing snippet of a live Cop Shoot Cop performance caught within the storied confines of CBGB. It wasn’t technically superb – it was shot from somehwere in the crowd, was a little shakey and only featured sound in one channel – but it still captured the band in rollicking form. I wondered aloud, at the tail end of that post, if there was any more video from that particular night.
It turns out there was.
While the original video – uploaded by one Gary TseTse Fly --- asserted that the show was recoded in 1992, this new clip says May of 1991. Honestly, who knows which to believe?
Regardless, from that same evening, here’s Cop Shoot Cop having a growly bash from one of my very favorite selections, “Burn Your Bridges.”
Happy Valentine’s Day!
