Just read the article todaty at the news stand.....while the comments about Punky and Greg would be standard fare I do feel there is a degree of bravado about the anecdotes on Angel. I find it hard to believe that a member of the support band would be able to substitute a can of hairspray for glue and still be on the tour the next day. I also think the Godz version of events at the San Diego gig in 78 have seemingly been distorted by time...the security at that show may very well have thought Angel were "fags" but that was not the reason for why the whole thing kicked off. The problems stemmed from the security hitting fans for no reason and basically acting like goons. Frank got in a fist fight with them, the road crew got involved and Punky poured beer on security and hit one with a bottle. The Godz escorted Angel back to the dressing room. So much for Angel being scumbags...if you're a scumbag then you get left to sort your own problems out.

In an interview with Eric Moore in 'Metal Forces' magazine back in 1986 he had this to say on the subject:
". ..the security there was worse than Alabama cops. They gave us hassle, so we blasted a couple of 'em, so when we got off stage they knew they weren't gonna mess with us.....we got word that Angel couldn't get off the stage. So we strapped on our guns and went over and got them."

On the subject of touring with Angel he said: "We had the same record company and the same agency. It was a natural package. We were in black leather and they were in white satin. It was a killer show. We were the opening act. It's my job to make the audience ready for the headliner - I'm not there to blow them off - and The Godz were real good at that. We got our point across and got the crowd ready for Angel."
