As @sk-76.bsky.social points out, the t-shirt reposted below derives it wording from the following Ramones number--the Ramones' next best song about huffing after Now I Wanna Sniff Some Glue...

Here's Joe Carducci's take on the late Bruce Loose of Flipper--not just in San Francisco, but during Loose's earlier trek to Portland, too. Includes a couple of excerpts from Loose's upcoming memoir (his collaboration with @leavinghashurt.bsky.social). A punk-freak sneak preview, so to speak...

Shared your post about Winterland with a friend. He enjoyed. A couple of his additional observations--the basic gist of which you may already be well aware of, but chose not to include within this specific piece:
