2026. Conrad “Cronos” Lant (1963-2026) passes away. “I had gone down to City Gardens before with Glenn to see Black Flag. I didn’t have a driver’s license at the time, so they wouldn’t let me in. I’m friends with Henry Rollins, I got Glenn Danzig into the show, but they still wouldn’t let me in! So I sat in the car for the whole show. Glenn drove, and he’s gonna hang out after the show and everything, and I’m sitting in the car. I didn’t get to see the show at all.” Eerie Von, from No Slam Dancing, No Stage Diving, No Spikes.
