i don’t know a lot about this band, but she always seems to be dressed like someone’s mom?? kind of throws you off…but her facial expressions, shouting and quick movements betray her conservative garb. the bags rock, plain and simple and were one of the revolutionaries. maybe she liked messing with the norm by dressing like them. wolf in sheeps clothing?
sounds like you need to bone up on Alice’s ostensible skankines:

yeah, BAGS´ survive video. This song is one of the greatest punk songs from late 70´s I´ve ever heard.
Singer Alice Bag can be seen in Alice Bag Band appeared in The Decline Of The Western Civilisation movie and soundtrack LP, which is darker, gloomier hardcore punk.
Wonder where in Portland this was filmed…
The venue that used to be the Long Goodbye in Portland. Such a name that brings out the warm fuzzies in everyone, but now its a foo foo kind of bar where “hipsters” go called Life Of Riley unfortunately. Jello had his say about the Long Goodbye once the next time he was in Portland (in 1979). This answer is only almost 10 years too late, but oh well.
