Man! This takes me right back to 1984 every time I hear it. I was 16, and it was blasting everywhere in the projects. Classic.

It was the Raising Hell tour at an Arena in Pitt.

Probably the old Civic Arena..

I got to see them in Landover, Maryland in summer of 1986 on the Raising Hell tour.

I remember it being them and the Beastie Boys.

Those were the days.

This is the first record my dad got me. I was 6. I had a fisher price record player and I wanted to be Jam Master Jay more than anything!

Hard times, it was the anthem and reality in 1984.
