I will probably head to the Boston area show since my friends bands are opening. I read in the latest Razorcake that it is only a 12 song set?

At the very least, the Germs had Pat, Lorna & Don in the band. You got all the classic living members of that band that you could.
Just saw Cheetah Chrome last year - and he was great! But billing it as the Dead Boys is pretty disingenuous. As far as I know, Jimmy Zero, Jeff Magnum and Johnny Blitz are all still alive...you go out with those guys, fair enough.
But - if not - Cheetah is the biggest ex-Dead Boy still around....tour under your own name and bill it as "Celebrating 40 Years of the Dead Boys"....I don't think that would be much of an issue for anyone.

Don't lump me in with those who don't get the first Lp (which is a total classic; beyond that, I can take or leave 'em), but like with anything, your mileage may vary.
Wasn't.
C'mon, there are some gems on the Second LP...

Aaand Sonic Reducer was a Rocket From the Tombs song pre-Frankenstein/Dead Boys/Pere Ubu anyway...

The rest of their vinyl output is just post-mortem live cash-in shit.

There's a lot of it about.

I also owned the archival RTT release. Again, I enjoyed it, but wasn't blown away. Maybe I'll go back and give all that stuff another listen.
