On a side note this is the letter Tony B sent out dropping OLC from VICTORY back in the day.

Victory's Official Statement - Dropping OLC

The Official Victory Statement

Hi Everybody-

I've been putting out records for six and a half years on Victory Records and I have never had to stop putting out records by one of the bands. Unfortunately, there is a band on my label that myself and the other existing Victory bands have decided we no longer wish to be associated with and that band is ONE LIFE CREW.

It's very hard to admit to making mistakes or errors in judgment but I made a grave error by putting out a record by this band. Due to the bands' overly violent actions at the recent Cleveland Festival I could no longer justify them being part of Victory Records. ONE LIFE CREW does have a right to their ideas and actions but VICTORY RECORDS no longer wishes to have anything to do with this band as their ideas and actions are not consistent with those of the label.

I feel as I have let many of the people that support VICTORY down and I am sorry. There are many other bands that I wish I could have released a record for that are much more deserving than ONE LIFE CREW. I feel betrayed by the band's actions. I feel like a sucker for having ever defended them. They were in a position last Friday to play in front of close to 1,000 people from across the country- the perfect opportunity for them to dispel the rumors and gossip about them. Instead, they antagonized the audience setting the scene for an altercation. Intelligent discourse with the crowd would have been the proper and preferred method here but unfortunately that was not the case.

To summarize the situation. I no longer feel comfortable having a band like ONE LIFE CREW represent my label VICTORY RECORDS. I made a mistake by putting out a record for this band and to everyone in the hardcore scene I apologize. I would like to receive your feedback.

Sincerely,

Tony / Victory Records

The story in a nutshell. May not be 100% right but more than sums it up.

-OLC had right wing songs
-the scene is PC,
-some kid called the singer of OLC a nazi or a fat jew (depending on who tells the story) at -a show in retaliation for OLC being right wing/sexist
-blah blah..
-singer of OLC swings on a kid, some skinhead types beat up said kid.
-The scene is PC
-they whine, Tony V is a pussy, he caves in.
-This then gives OLC the idea to become even more offensive cartoons of themselves
-they release an over the top second full length.
-The scene is PC, they whine
-band Implodes and fades into obscurity/lengend.

^^^^^^^^ I got it on tape VHS. I'll send a copy but have no idea what would work best in transfering it to dvd.

clevohardcore - 2-12-2008 at 02:57 PM

The above YOUTUBE was correct. I got the whole thing on tape. That is edited and it is pretty good. Also I got the shoooting on video from both OLC and INGTEGRITY shows. Not to mention the cutting of Dwids mic while playing in Peabodys in Clevo. Some from C Bus came up and did it.

It would take a trilogy. I prefer to just enjoy the greatest HC record of the 90's... CRS and pretend the band that recorded it, wasn't the band who recorded it.

Discipline - 2-12-2008 at 05:25 PM

Do you really think CRS was the best hardcore record of the 90's???

I like American Justice WAY better because its so damn funny!

"Remember... Straight Edge is all about golf"

"Bats & Gats.... Bats & Gats.... Beat & Shoot the weak!"

"Im talking about holding hands... sharing lunches.... backpacks!"

Who from OLC was in PITBOSS 2000?

and was there ever an actual band called PROHIBITION 2000?

PROHIBITION 2000 used to come out during some of the last OLC shows hear in Clevo and some others cities. THey would come out with bats, work gloves and various other "weapons". And mess with anone drinking at the shows. Sometimes grabbing folding chairs live and swinging them around at people.

XHonusWagnerX - 2-12-2008 at 07:45 PM

So they were just like a 'crew' and were never a band?

Was anyone from OLC in Pitboss?

What was the deal with OLC anyway... they sang about straight edge, but then talked about cigars. Were they ever sxe or did they just like to push peoples buttons?

I think when they where Prohibition 2000 Chubz and Lockjaw where in it and maybe more from OLC. I think the line up changed when they changed their name to Pitboss 2000. Not sure though. I'm sure Clevo will know.

Six66Mike - 2-12-2008 at 10:07 PM

Still love PB2K, never ever liked OLC.

clevohardcore - 2-13-2008 at 12:47 AM

pb2k, PROHIBITION 2000, pittboss, etc was mainly Lockjaw who ran with it after the OLC demise. They moved to C-BUS from Clevo had many many different members and then moved to Cali. Since late 90's they have called it quits many many times. I guess still doing shows. Now Lockjaw is doing other things as most you know. I saw the fisrt PB2K show and it featured all of OLC including Mean Steve who was rumoured to have left or not been assoiciated becasue of his business endevours outside hardcore. Mainly a chain of tanning salons. That is the main reason OLC ended. That and the Chubby/Ezec issue. In 1997 Ezec moved to Clevo for 2 years with his old girl and that really put a hurting on his shittalking and OLC shows. Some say that was the reason for the move to C-BUS, but Lockjaw could answer that one.That caused alot of tumoil in the band because EVERYONE in OLC was not diggin Chubs at all around then. Plus he was working in a non hardcore band that played alternative collegerock called Liquid. Among that he was trying desperately to start another hardcore band with other members of local bands who would give him the time of day. After they got to know him it never worked out. Bands were COMMITTED among others.

On a side note I no longer talk to any of them, but John was a good dude. Ezec, John, Frank-ringworm, and us kicked it many times and had a great time. I just wasn't feeling anymore after a while. Shit got to crazy and fucked up so I lost touch with all them. Plus, the band I was in was never on par with these guys. We were always the opening, opening band that wore awsome shirts and liked to party so we were envited out with them.

Wow, thanks for OLC history lesson. I liked it better when Chubz was the kid up front in the COS shirt at a COS show :yes:

The last time I saw Steve was briefly at that BS 'Last' Integrity show in Cleveland back in '01 I think. He was rocking a bright orange leather motorcycle jacket with another dude who had the same jacket on. It was kind of odd. The last time I saw OLC was Philly in '96 when like 10 people showed up.

Pound for pound there is not a single greater 14 minutes of hardcore in the 90's so yes.

XHonusWagnerX - 2-13-2008 at 08:54 AM

One of the things I dont understand AT ALL... is the geography of it...

PB2K was from Clevo.... Then Cali, but while they were in Cali they had songs about and preached about Boston.... Now Lockjaw lives in Texas and one of his newer bands (PC Deathsquad) sings all about being from the Bay area of Cali!?! What the fuck!?

I also dont understand all the shit that Slapshot got for the 'fuck new york' song when Lockjaw has a tattoo of the twin towers on fire with planes and stuff and a big Boston Red Sox "B" in front of it.

CR83 - 2-13-2008 at 11:54 AM

Lockjaw can be pretty funny. I just see him as a poor man's Billy Milano (sp?)

mattybar - 2-13-2008 at 12:37 PM

Crime Ridden Society is an awesome album.
American Justice is ok for the skits but the actual songs don't really stand up compared to CRS.

Well, because 'Fuck New York' was published and distributed and I doubt many people know of LockJaw's tat. I didn't know until you just said it. But then again I could care less about either. Relight the Fire was the best song on that record and I could give a shit is Jon is dead or alive.
