Death In The Extended Family

From punk turns 30:

Brendan Mullen, one of the pillars of the LA punk rock community, its greatest fan and documentarian passed away today.

It was reported by Media Bistro today that he suffered a stroke that he did not survive.

Had Mr. Mullen not opened The Masque in a basement warren just off Hollywood Blvd., things might have been very different. Or not. But all that pent-up crap had to ferment somewhere, & he provided the vat.
