Punk rock house? Be more specific. Are you talking about the Ashe Ave house or the Enterprise house?

Swain's was the best of the best. My all time favorite restaurant. Remember the "Sirloin for two" $15.95 with all the trimmings...plus piano

It was on turner street right off Hillsborough . used to have shows there, looked on google maps and it doesnt look much like it did. Here is some info How North Carolina Got Its Punk Attitude

"In the spring of '82, the next batch of kids started forming their own bands. Many were inspired by a band called Corrosion Of Conformity who, although somewhat inactive at the time, had been around since the days of Butchwax. Their style of music was labeled Hardcore, and they found themselves isolated to practicing at home, as there were no legitimate places that would have them.

The earliest Hardcore bands around Raleigh were Easy Pick-ups, Colcor (later, Missionary and Finger), No Rock Stars, The Accused and Buckwheat's Army (later, No Labels). A unique symbol of the "scene unity," was that bands No Labels, The Accused & C.O.C. shared several of the same members at the same time. Talk about a hectic schedule! In late '82, two scenesters decided to rent the old Blind Boy fanzine house to have shows in, so 14-A Turner Street had a Hardcore party nearly every weekend of that fall. "

Keeping with Music theme. fabulous knobs and pkm played all the time on wknc. knc when it played metal The connells. REM was everywhere
