Disco 42 Jönköping Sweden Sunday July 17 1977
The gig was not recorded. They spent the next day travelling to Kristinehamn for a gig at the Club Zebra on the 19th. This is the only picture I've ever seen from the gig at Disco 42.

Disco 42 Jönköping Sweden Sunday July 17 1977 |

| In Jönköping the band only played for about 20 min. The gig
was cut short when the local police stopped it because of the numerous bomb threats. There were no bombs at the club, but
this is how some people reacted to the band back in 1977. Swedish media made a lot out of punkrockers wearing swastikas,
raggare caused a lot of problems and the police were expecting violence. Also Jönköping is known for being a very religious town.
