This reminds me of that South Park episode where Timmy joins a band and becomes a rock and roll superstar. Just like in that South Park episode, people will doubtlessly believe that me posting this video is cruel. To that, I say the great thing about these guys is they are in your face, doing their own thing, and clearly enjoying it.
I mean, who knew this whole crowd would get so into hardcore punk? This is much like the scenes I saw when I was a teenager going to all ages shows. The difference, of course, is that the mentally handicapped — in general — don't care about ideological purity and "who sold out". To them, it's all about the rock and roll. Even the lady in the wheelchair is getting into it.
Actually, I think it would be cool if more mentally handicapped went to concerts. I think it would be more fun. Maybe their clear enjoyment would rub off on some of the more stoic folks in the audience.
