at a screening of "Salad Days: A Decade Of Punk In Washington, DC (1980-1990)" at the Regent Theatre on February 27, 2015 in Los Angeles, California.
When Circle Jerks put out their 1983 song “Coup D’Etat,” Donald Trump had not yet sicced his supporters on the US capitol building. Attitudes can change after you’ve watched an incumbent president attempt to overturn election results on live TV! And so when the LA hardcore punks performed the song at Coachella Sunday evening, frontman Keith Morris disclosed afterwards: “That song, that last line, ends with ‘kill all.’ That’s a pretty fucking ugly statement… In ugly times. Do not think that we encourage that.” His idea instead: “What we do encourage — what would be totally fucking happening — would be an army of Luigis.”
