Bad Brains, somewhere in Philly, sometime in '81

How you feel?

Vintage punkity rawk. But many questions are begged here. Where is this, precisely? Dobbs? Pre-Dobbs? (Likely.) Moreover, what presciently-minded person shot this? Film or VHS? How strange is it to see concert footage before the advent of DV and cameraphones? Bets on whether the camera survived the full set? Was Temple's budding film department pissed when its rented gear was returned in pieces?
