As cornerstone architects of 80s hardcore and melodic punk, Milo Aukerman, Stephen Egerton, Karl Alvarez, and Bill Stevenson delivered a tight, high-velocity 33-song setlist. This photograph was later hand-signed by all four band members, with artist Chris Shary adding an original Milo illustration directly onto the guitar speaker cabinets within the frame.
