On one's mind



This clip features Bad Brains live at CBGB in 1982.

Last November, Dr. Know, aka Gary Miller, guitarist for the influential band, was hospitalized for cardiac arrest, which gave way to multiple organ failure. As Pitchfork reported, Bad Brains manager Vaughan Lewis launched a GoFundMe campaign in the spring to raise money for Miller's medical expenses.

Tomorrow afternoon in Tompkins Square Park, there's a Dr. Know benefit show in Tompkins Square Park Tompkins Square Park featuring Breakdown, Token Entry, Cro-Mags, Antidote and Maximum Penalty. Read more about the show here.
