Pay To Cum – one of the best songs ever!! I heard a story about How Low in a book I got for my last birthday – Going Underground – (American Punk 1979-1992). On page 137, HR is described as a homophobic pig because of his behaviour towards Randy from The Big Boys at a gig in Austin. It is so sad how religion screws people up.

First time I heard Pay to Cum, I was stunned, and it still makes me smile hugely. Love it, but only that original version. It was so out of context that it can’t be ‘hardcore’–many hardcore bands (with obvious exceptions) were conservative, musically limited, and fascistic, but not Bad Brains. My copy of the song came from Let Them Eat Jellybeans. Not that crappy live version that was on a gold 45 or whatever. Martha Fokker is apparently living in a basement or closet somewhere, how wanky.

the live in tiajuana 7″ kills me and the “pay to come” single is the birth of punk rock,who cares how they dressed.Also,the Bad Brains did’nt play more shows than any band because they were/are total scammers.Thats the truth…Brian
