Diodes time damage
The Diodes "Time Damage"
From YouTube uploader:
The Diodes formed in October 1976 and within 7 months opened Toronto's first punk club, The Crash 'n' Burn.
The club gave the nascent punk scene a focal point but also brought a lot of media notoriety. By August 1977, the Crash 'n' Burn was forced to close, an occasion marked by a sold out show featuring the Dead Boys.
Thirty years later the Diodes not only reform to play Dundas Square during the North By Northeast music festival, but return to visit the art college (OCA) where they came together and the building that used to be the Crash 'n' Burn, now a lawyers' office. Here's some exclusive footage from an upcoming documentary on the band directed by ToBeScene's Aldo Erdic.
