I can attest that the “Penis Landscape” that caused all the problems for Jello Biafra did hang in a Fordham University dorm room for quite a long time. There was actually a call on some college radio stations at the time to hang it as a sign of freedom or such.

I see that 1986 flier mentions the Rettmans, a trio Randy Now formed whenever he desperately needed an opening act on a bill.
I saw them open for the Ramones once. Boy, did the audience hate them!
