Thanks go out to Jeff and Jane Hudson for their music track “In My Car”

In March of 1980 Pat Lyons the owner of the Spit Club in Boston brought in a film crew from MIT to cover a raucous New Wave, Punk fashion show. Several hours of film were shot and used by Spit and Metro for their video display systems throughout the 80’s. In 2000 Jan Crocker digitized all the footage and put together this music video of the highlights from that evening.
