The Dickies, Metal MC, Pigmy Love Circus: Scream, Los Angeles CA
Danny (Shredder) Weizmann, L.A. Weekly, 29 July 1988
TEN YEARS of anything is a lot... usually too much. When I was younger, I worshiped the Dickies as the overlords of my conscience, wrote "The Dickies" on all six of my Pee-Chee folders, and saw them every chance I got. Last Saturday, at Scream, they played well. Jammed, even. But like I said, 10 years is a lot, even for Elvis, the Beatles, Love Boat and Yoplait. It all seemed like just so many growls from a dinosaur quickly losing its teeth along with its will to bite.
