Husker Du played in this rowhouse basement - West Side Club

This is where Drexel University students Lenny Bandock and Jeff Jenkins, who was a WKDU hardcore punk DJ on the Drexel station, had lived. They used their basement for hardcore punk rock concerts, see https://books.google.com/books?id=Aa6lCwAAQBAJ&pg=PT165&lpg=PT165&dq=%22dead+kennedys%22+%22starlite+ballroom%22+%22dynamite%22+%22mason+jar%22&source=bl&ots=9QGcku6OKk&sig=ACfU3U0y6evVVTLh22L-7cDPA5wwhRXa2Q&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiv9vGag8TiAhWjzlkKHXewDJcQ6AEwAHoECAEQAQ#v=onepage&q=%22dead%20kennedys%22%20%22starlite%20ballroom%22%20%22dynamite%22%20%22mason%20jar%22&f=false. Husker Du was perhaps the biggest name to play there, more than once. It was all ages, and its name is a contrast to the East Side Club in Center City Philly where minors could not get in. Id.
