From the article:
“The Worm is not a dangerous dance, unless you lie on the ground writhing in broken beer bottles”
“Two girls from Orange County were having a hard time booking their band, Sexual Fustration, at the popular Hong Kong Cafe in L.A.’s Chinatown. “While one was taking to me,” recalls the manager, “the other went into the girls’ room and broke a bunch of beer bottles in the sink and ran her hands through the glass. Then she came out to talk to me, blood streaming down her arms.” 
The links here were all screwed up, so I’m fixin’ em. Great article too… I like how the writer refers to those punk hoodlums as “creeps.” And exposes their obsession with broken beer bottle glass. And Suicidal Tendencies (in what must have been their first mention in a major publication.)
