It wasnt a big stretch for them to start collecting in the area of punk. We have a lot of great photos and flyers from that area and that. That i could donate myself. From theyre, i decided, you know, why not pursue other people and other bands and get them to donate as well . The historic moments in San Francisco, punk history, is the sex pistols concert which was at winterland. [ ] it brought all of the punks on the web west coast to San Francisco to see this show.
