I was remembering that Overthrow are to be released on vinyl

Here is a review I found online, taken from an old fanzine or newspaper.
Thanks to the original uploader.

I barely remember that concert.
By the time Vio-lence hit the stage though, MOST of the audience had gone home!
I can't remember why, but they started playing after midnight or 1 am!
the last TTC subway train and last bus for many was between midnight-1:30 am (I think).
Not everybody lived downtown and could walk or take an all night streetcar home.

Another thing I remember was the usual thing, a bunch of assholes standing on the stage all around and blocking the view of the band ,so the rest of us could barely  see anything. (The ceiling was only about 7 feet high for crying out loud).

All the bands delivered good sets, but think I was tired of the Apocalypse Club and that bullshit of not seeing anything for half of the shows I attended  there.
The more popular the band, the more likely I would not see anything.
It was great for local bands and all ages shows though.
