He was 65.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>MacGowan’s songwriting and persona made him an iconic figure in contemporary Irish culture, and some of his compositions have become classics — most notably the bittersweet Christmas ballad “Fairytale of New York,” which Irish President Michael D. Higgins said “will be listened to every Christmas for the next century or more.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It is with the deepest sorrow and heaviest of hearts that we announce the passing of our most beautiful, darling and dearly beloved Shane MacGowan,” his wife Victoria Clarke, his sister Siobhan and father Maurice said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The singer died peacefully with his family by his side, the statement added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The musician had been hospitalized in Dublin for several months after being diagnosed with viral encephalitis in late 2022. He was discharged last week, ahead of his upcoming birthday on Christmas Day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Pogues melded Irish folk and rock ’n’ roll into a unique, intoxicating blend, though MacGowan became as famous for his sozzled, slurred performances as for his powerful songwriting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j9jbdgZidu8\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His songs blended the scabrous and the sentimental, ranging from carousing anthems to snapshots of life in the gutter to unexpectedly tender love songs.

Rees spliced his films of punk shows with news and documentary clips that often added a gravitas — and impending sense of doom — to already intense songs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It made sense for Rees, then, to start his own venue in 1978.

They remember his daughter, Jennifer, coming to shows at the Mabuhay. And Milk did go to the Mabuhay for a benefit for the No On 6 campaign, the anti-Briggs Initiative. [The failed proposition would’ve banned gays and lesbians from working in public schools.] It was headlined by Crime, and Milk was the MC.

You had gay punks who lived in the Castro or spent time at the clubs there, and some knew Harvey Milk. When [415 Records cofounder] Howie Klein moved to San Francisco, Milk loaned him a camera and gave him free darkroom time. But there was also a younger LGBTQ community that didn’t feel so welcome in the Castro. Some of them, gay men I’ve spoken to, refer to the Castro clones, who were kind of upwardly mobile or more respectable. So there’s tension, but people move between the disco and punk scenes, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13845668\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 621px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/11/Crime.PoliceOutfits.jpg\" alt=\"San Francisco punk band Crime, who often performed in police uniforms.\" width=\"621\" height=\"389\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13845668\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/11/Crime.PoliceOutfits.jpg 621w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/11/Crime.PoliceOutfits-160x100.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 621px) 100vw, 621px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">San Francisco punk band Crime, who often performed in police uniforms. \u003ccite>(YouTube)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Moscone’s murder leads to Dianne Feinstein becoming the mayor of San Francisco. After she assumed power, how did the police department’s approach to the punk scene change?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the memories of nearly all the punks that I’ve spoken to, there’s an almost immediate change in the police’s handling of crowds outside of the Mabuhay. They’re rolling up, harassing people, arresting people. There’s a kind of raid on the club, in which even Ness Aquino, the owner, is arrested. That’s a week or so after Feinstein takes office. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>And then she’s blamed for the police preemptively shutting down an Avengers show, right?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Right. The Avengers and the Mutants were going to do a show at the Art Institute in February of ’79, and \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfmutants.com/800chestnut.html\">the show posters used bondage imagery and partially naked women\u003c/a>. Feinstein’s papers aren’t open for research, so I still have questions, but the word was that she took offense. The posters were all over North Beach, and maybe up closer to her home in Pacific Heights. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So the police padlocked the venue the night of the show. Eventually there was a makeup show, with alternate versions of the poster criticizing Feinstein for censorship. There was a definite sense by that point that as part of cleaning up San Francisco, she had it in for the punks. \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13845666\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/11/DanWhite.DKs_-800x517.jpg\" alt=\"Part of the insert booklet for 'Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables,' with extensive criticism of the Dan White verdict.\" width=\"800\" height=\"517\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13845666\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/11/DanWhite.DKs_-800x517.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/11/DanWhite.DKs_-160x103.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/11/DanWhite.DKs_-768x496.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/11/DanWhite.DKs_-1020x659.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/11/DanWhite.DKs_-960x621.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/11/DanWhite.DKs_-240x155.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/11/DanWhite.DKs_-375x242.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/11/DanWhite.DKs_-520x336.jpg 520w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/11/DanWhite.DKs_.jpg 1100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Part of the insert booklet for ‘Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables,’ with extensive criticism of the Dan White verdict. \u003ccite>(Alternative Tentacles)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables\u003c/em> is arguably the San Francisco punk scene’s first full-length statement, and Feinstein is sort of the album’s antagonist, right?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She’s certainly the antagonist.

Do you think Jonestown connects to the punk scene’s disenchantment with the city’s more traditional sort of progressivism? \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s a good question. I only get vague answers about the scene’s interaction with Jim Jones or the Peoples Temple, although it was next door to Temple Beautiful, which had a lot of punk shows. To them, Jonestown was at least confirmation of certain pathologies in American society, but not something they associated necessarily with a liberal political regime. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>How does \u003cem>Fresh Fruit\u003c/em>’s cover reference Dan White?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The verdict in his trial began the White Night riots. Punks participated. A couple people have told me they were among the first to throw bricks through the windows of City Hall. They were definitely among the first to set police cars on fire, which show up in these iconic \u003cem>Examiner\u003c/em> photos and then on the cover of \u003cem>Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables\u003c/em>. Paired with the font of the band’s name, it has this kind of Kristallnacht look, which was a deliberate provocation. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D9lmj8fO64k\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Did other local bands address the killings? \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yeah. There were benefits for punks arrested during the riots. Tuxedomoon is a good example. Steven Brown from Tuxedomoon was a fiercely political guy and also gay. He had moved to San Francisco from Chicago, where he was involved in a lot of student activism. When the White trial was taking place, they did these performances of ‘19th Nervous Breakdown’ where they read testimony from the newspapers. They also did ‘(Special Treatment for the) Family Man.’ Like the Dead Kennedys version of ‘I Fought the Law,’ it was specifically about Dan White. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another Tuxedomoon song, which has never been released, was called, ‘Dianne, Your Slip is Showing.’ It basically suggests what a lot of punks have relayed to me over the years: that the killings seemed like an orchestrated conspiracy. Most of them consider White killing Moscone and Milk, the verdict, and Feinstein’s rise a win for cops and landlords, if not a right-wing coup.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-800x78.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"78\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-12127869\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-400x39.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-768x75.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/p>\n\n","blocks":[],"excerpt":"Historian Michael Stewart Foley discusses the effects of Dianne Feinstein's rise to power on the San Francisco punk scene.

[The failed proposition would’ve banned gays and lesbians from working in public schools.] It was headlined by Crime, and Milk was the MC.

You had gay punks who lived in the Castro or spent time at the clubs there, and some knew Harvey Milk. When [415 Records cofounder] Howie Klein moved to San Francisco, Milk loaned him a camera and gave him free darkroom time. But there was also a younger LGBTQ community that didn’t feel so welcome in the Castro. Some of them, gay men I’ve spoken to, refer to the Castro clones, who were kind of upwardly mobile or more respectable. So there’s tension, but people move between the disco and punk scenes, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13845668\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 621px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/11/Crime.PoliceOutfits.jpg\" alt=\"San Francisco punk band Crime, who often performed in police uniforms.\" width=\"621\" height=\"389\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13845668\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/11/Crime.PoliceOutfits.jpg 621w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/11/Crime.PoliceOutfits-160x100.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 621px) 100vw, 621px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">San Francisco punk band Crime, who often performed in police uniforms. \u003ccite>(YouTube)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Moscone’s murder leads to Dianne Feinstein becoming the mayor of San Francisco. After she assumed power, how did the police department’s approach to the punk scene change?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the memories of nearly all the punks that I’ve spoken to, there’s an almost immediate change in the police’s handling of crowds outside of the Mabuhay. They’re rolling up, harassing people, arresting people. There’s a kind of raid on the club, in which even Ness Aquino, the owner, is arrested. That’s a week or so after Feinstein takes office. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>And then she’s blamed for the police preemptively shutting down an Avengers show, right?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Right. The Avengers and the Mutants were going to do a show at the Art Institute in February of ’79, and \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfmutants.com/800chestnut.html\">the show posters used bondage imagery and partially naked women\u003c/a>. Feinstein’s papers aren’t open for research, so I still have questions, but the word was that she took offense. The posters were all over North Beach, and maybe up closer to her home in Pacific Heights. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So the police padlocked the venue the night of the show. Eventually there was a makeup show, with alternate versions of the poster criticizing Feinstein for censorship.

There were benefits for punks arrested during the riots. Tuxedomoon is a good example. Steven Brown from Tuxedomoon was a fiercely political guy and also gay. He had moved to San Francisco from Chicago, where he was involved in a lot of student activism. When the White trial was taking place, they did these performances of ‘19th Nervous Breakdown’ where they read testimony from the newspapers. They also did ‘(Special Treatment for the) Family Man.’ Like the Dead Kennedys version of ‘I Fought the Law,’ it was specifically about Dan White. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another Tuxedomoon song, which has never been released, was called, ‘Dianne, Your Slip is Showing.’ It basically suggests what a lot of punks have relayed to me over the years: that the killings seemed like an orchestrated conspiracy.

He admits to driving out of his way to places like Going Underground Records in downtown Bakersfield just to pick up a rare album. He loves Joe Strummer, and often wears punk and hardcore T-shirts from local and national bands. So it’s no surprise to learn that Estrada is well-versed in Bay Area punk bands and long-lost music venues in San Francisco. [pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Comedian Chris Estrada\"]‘San Francisco itself has such a history of punk music. I also love Dead Kennedys. I love Spazz, an old powerviolence band. There are so many Bay Area punk bands that I love.’[/pullquote] “I also like to walk around and look for old punk venues that don’t exist anymore. There was this Filipino place out here in the ’70s called Mabuhay Gardens and they used to rent out its place to punk shows,” he said. “There was another place not too far from here called the Deaf Club. It was a club for deaf people and then a lot of punk bands used to perform there.

I love Spazz, an old powerviolence band.

It’s also what gets him in the right mindset before he takes the stage. [aside label='More on Bay Area Music' tag='bay-area-punk'] “There’s a song, it’s not like an energetic song, it’s called ‘\u003ca href=\"https://youtu.be/3Ifb_Zs0X9s\">State of the Art\u003c/a>’ by Jesse Malin. Then, there’s another song called ‘\u003ca href=\"https://youtu.be/3MUGAxpI0Bc\">Ante Up’\u003c/a> by a hip-hop group called M.O.P. — and that just has such a strong energy,” he said. “‘Ante Up,’ because it’s such an amped-up, hyped song, it’s about robbing rappers, it just gets me in a really good mood when I need it. But when I feel anxiety, the other one calms me down.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With his last remaining performances at the Punch Line, Estrada hopes to win over people in the crowd who aren’t as familiar with his stand-up career.

Now the doors are finally open, prominent musicians are lining up to guide fans around the property. In May alone, members of Sick of it All, Social Distortion, The Casualties, Bad Religion, Less Than Jake and The Vandals are all giving tours. (Regular tickets to the museum cost $30.

No, this museum, like so many of the dingy rooms from whence punk sprang, assumes that you are there because you already know.

It’s also impossible not to notice various inconsistencies when it comes to photo credits. (Some walls simply have none at all.)
