San Francisco’s Crime plays San Quentin prison in 1984. Extra bonus points for the fact that it looks like it was shot out of a secret hidden camera.

From crimewave.biz:
So at odds were these motherfuckers that, aside from dressing like cops, they actually looked like asshole cops. Their performance for inmates at San Quentin Penitentiary (in cop getup of course) remains one of the most surreal moments committed to video. If punks couldn’t stand them, imagine the prisoners’ minds-eye forever seared with the image. Ludovico technique?
I hope that my friends at Kill Kill Die Die Records are watching!
