We were touring throughout the States in the mid-80s, and we'd get a little bit of an audience here and there, but after a couple of years in Europe, we started doing some big shows there, and all of a sudden, people in the States were coming out to our shows. And we went from getting paid $200 to getting paid $1000. It was just like that. You had to have the buzz, and then it all just kind of blew up."Getting Nomeansno vinyl into stores is long overdue, so it all starts here with Wrong.
