The Masque was a small punk rock club in central Hollywood, California which existed from 1977 to 1978. It is remembered as a key part of the early LA punk scene. ==History== The Masque was founded by Scottish-British-American rock promoter Brendan Mullen, opening on August 18, 1977.〔http://gogonotes.blogspot.com/2008/03/1977-79-masque.html〕 It quickly became the nexus of the Los Angeles punk subculture. It was located at 1655 North Cherokee Avenue, between Hollywood Boulevard and Selma Avenue. Many LA bands frequently performed there, including The Dickies, X, Germs, Bags, The Screamers, Black Randy and the Metrosquad, The Alley Cats, The Go-Go's, Suburban Lawns, The Mau-Mau's, The Weirdos, The Zeros, The Avengers, The Dils, The Skulls, The Controllers and The Smart Pills. Rhino 39, one of Long Beach, California's earliest punk rock bands, also played there often. Several bands rented practice space at The Masque, including The Motels, The Controllers, The Skulls, The Go-Go's, The Berlin Brats, The Smart Pills and Secrets. At least two compilation records featuring live performances at The Masque were released. First generation punk fanzines like ''Flipside'' and ''Slash'' covered the scene at The Masque. The original Masque was closed by fire marshals on January 14, 1978.〔Spray Paint the Walls: The Story of Black Flag by Stevie Chick〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Masque」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
