Fear
FEAR IN CONCERT:LA hardcore punk pioneers Fear have been shaking up audiences with their snarling attitude, breakneck anthems, and wild on-stage antics since the late ‘70s. The band’s aggressive, controversial 1981 performance on Saturday Night Live launched them from underground popularity to national infamy, and they’ve remained provocative ever since with thrash-worthy performances on tour. Whether they’re tearing through classic rally songs like “I Love Livin’ in the City” and “Let’s Have a War” or hamming it up with oddball favorites like “Beef Bologna”, Fear always treats ticket buyers to an epic punk rock show chock-full of incisive wit, electrifying energy, and over-the-top showmanship.BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:Fear was formed in 1977 by vocalist Lee Ving and bassist Derf Scratch.
