| Tech Notes | The Nig Heist 1984 Mugger - Vocals Bill Stevenson - Guitar Tom Troccoli - Bass Davo Classen - Drums Was the Nig Heist the greatest rock and roll band in the world, or the worst? I know where I stand! For those of you who somehow missed 'em, the Nig Heist had a revolving line up consisting of various members of the SST Records community. On the shows here, the line up is as above. They opened for Black Flag, along with the Meat Puppets on Flag's 1984 My War tour, during which each of the three shows on this disc were recorded. The band were, in all likelihood, the most vile and offensive act to ever grace a stage. They did not perform a single song that was not grossly sexually explict in nature, and their between song banter consisted entirely of singer Mugger baiting the crowd with the most juvenile insults that percolated in his twisted brain. I had the pleasure of seeing them in Philadelphia and knew immediately that I was lucky enough to have witnessed something very special - so much so that I returned from the show, went to a party and ran into a friend to whom I declared, "I just saw the best band in the world." No less an authority than GG Allin seems to have agreed with me. In 1992, he wrote a letter to bass player Tom Troccoli, declaring himself to be the Nig Heist's #1 fan! Big thanks to Tom for providing this disc to me, specifically with the understanding that it be shared with the BT community. Tom, apologies in advance if I got any of the details wrong. Please feel free to correct song titles, etc. Greystone Hall Detroit, MI Woman Drivah Love in Your Mouth My Balls are on Fire Tight Little Pussy Walking Down the Street (?) (?)
