Where to start?
A Wet Helmet:
As someone who has seen Black Flag, Butthole Surfers, and Mudhoney all play live, (obviously not at the same time) y'all are seriously pushing me over the edge of the impeding midlife crisis that has been brewing for awhile. You write about it in the same way I would write about selecting the best Vanilla Fudge album. I (stupidly) just did the math on how long it has been since Black Flag broke up and got seriously depressed. I think I'm going to go pluck grey hair or rant in the blog thread or something.
Sidebar trivia: Out of the three Butthole Surfer shows I attended, At two of them the band accidentally lit the venue on fire.

I'd go with Bodycage. If you can't get into it you might not want to keep trying.

All of it, in fact. I was taking the original versions from the pre-Rollins era.

At the height of their powers, I would definitely see all three of these bands live for sure. All three were pretty much renowned for being a stellar live act. However, I spent a lot of time and money on records by all three and with hindsight I would admit to liking roughly fifty minutes of their music combined. I can't say they were bad bands, I just think there's a lot of better music out there. Unless you're downloading, then I guess it makes no financial difference. However, at the time I was buying said records and now they all sit in my loft unloved.
