On the occasion of its first new music in 28 years, the reformed Black Flag played Union Transfer on Monday night. One version of the proto-punk legends, anyway, and in the eyes of some, the more legit version since it included founding member, guitarist and songwriter Greg Ginn along with early vocalist Ron Reyes. (Non-sticklers – Keith Morris’ Flag plays The Trocadero on September 18th and tickets are available here.) The sold-out crowd also thrashed to opening sets by Good for You, Ginn’s collaboration with Jersey pro skateboarder Mike Vallely, and the Hoboken band True Love.
