Since the late 1970s, California has had a thriving regional punk rock movement. It primarily consists of (but is not limited to) bands from the Los Angeles, Alameda County, Orange County, Ventura County, San Francisco, and San Diego areas. Los Angeles had a very strong glam rock scene in the early 1970s and, as was the case in New York and London, many figures from the glam rock scene would play notable roles in the later punk scene. The LA glam rock scene was centered around a club called the English Disco, run by Rodney Bingenheimer, who later, as a disc jockey for KROQ's "Rodney on the Rock", did much to promote LA punk bands. In the mid-1970s, a wave of protopunk hard rock bands emerged, most notably The Runaways. Around 1979 in Southern California, the first hardcore punk bands arose, including Middle Class, Black Flag, Rhino 39, and the Circle Jerks.
