You might want to check out the video of GG's birthday party with Ron back on vocals, it's loud raw... It's BLACK FLAG man! I saw them in every incarnation and IMO Ron was the best frontman and he still looks and sounds great.

no brainer - both less than 10 yrs away from 65 - pretty sure they ain't got a fat pension lined up! - then there's a magic, virtually bottomless pot of cash labeled 'Punk Rock Nostalgia' placed in front of them...dive right in gentlemen! And it'll be good, stripped down rock and the kids, old and young, will come.
As a fan who saw them way back in the early 80's (I liked Dez on vocals the best-good and raw), I say good for them provided that they've got new material that kicks ass and has something to say and not merely a greatest hits retro, and also good for the kids that weren't alive to see them back in the day for the chance to see them live provided GG and Co. can still bring it.
