Gary Floyd tribute 
Gary Floyd died on Tuesday in San Francisco. Floyd grew up in Palestine, Texas as a conscientious objector. I am going to try and give you a sense of the band’s Reagan-era politics in this set. Most aggressively upfront was Floyd himself, a fat, openly gay man who often wore drag while performing to Eighties Texas crowds. “Dicks Hate the Police,” has become one of the most covered songs in the punk scene. I could probably do a show on covers of this song. So in our tribute to Gary Floyd we are going to start there.
