Stories Related to Review: Verböten, The Punk Music, Rocks House Theatre Of Chicago

“Punk is dead,” circa 1978.  In unassuming Evanston in 1983, Verböten added their name to the other off-putting punk band names like Suicidal Tendencies, Social Distortion, Black Flag, The Misfits, and Germ Shepherd. This four-member band had been putting their time, soul, and angst into their music. It was their “Psycho Therapy” for dealing with divorce, quality time with family, alcoholism, country clubs, absent parents, over-involved parents, adoption, and Ronald Reagan. Through this blitzkrieg bop the band gets an invite to play the gritty Cubby Bear in Chicago.
