MRR letter writing never goes well, John Caution penned one about Rabies failing at being provocative. The guy from Punks Before Profits always writes contrived bs about how much is owed to him. Old friend but jesus he sure is demanding. I grabbed the Infame LP from Destino Final in Austin and its great.

Inepsy EP: far better or far worse than City/Weapons? C/W is still my favorite but I do like RNR Babylon and No Speed Limit a lot.

My band just got done recording our first demo, and we've uploaded two new tracks to myspace. Any feedback on the tracks would be really cool. http://www.myspace.com/lightsleeperband For fans of HWM/Latterman/Alexis/Lawrence Arms I guess. Thanks!

I clicked your link and kept meandering through the internet listening and much to my surprise when I clicked back to read about you guys I realised that you're a loving Brisbane band. You guys definitely have your craft worked out. I might have to go to your 7th of August show. Can definitely hear the Hot Water Music influence!

No Cash sounds similar. Not so much ska though. If you like Stza then you might want to try Star loving Hipsters too. Any heard the new Shook Ones album? If so, what do you think? FrozenDiarrhea fucked around with this message at 18:19 on Jun 9, 2009 |

I never heard of the Shook Ones before this post, and checked them out. I like it. Sounds sorta like a cross between dillinger four, small brown bike, and kid dynamite.

Seconding No Cash as well.

How so? Also am I retarded or does it seem like all the summer festivals seem to be on the east coast or midwest? I'm in Southern California and it seems like slim pickings over here. I'm going to Clitfest and probably Warped but if there are some on the west coast I'm missing please enlighten me.

Going to see Pour Habit(http://www.myspace.com/pourhabit) tonight. My brother is friends with the vocalist, so it will be cool to chill with them and possibly meet No Use For A Name(they are headlining). Check out their myspace, they got signed by Fat Wreck Chords recently and I think they are going to get pretty big, they continue to get more and more well-known. They are pretty good, check em out.

Southern California has shows, but they're usually at pretty lame venues. Not a whole lot in the cheap all-ages situation down there.

I just posted the order for my band's (Legitimate Business) new CD in SA-Mart. Hopefully some of you have 12 bucks to spare so I can send you a copy! Click my band's name there if you want to hear the new single "First World Problems". Buy it here: http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3152223 Or here:  We're doing a record release show in Asbury Park in July, followed by dates in Philly, DC, CT, and Long Island. Hopefully some of you can make it out if you're into it!

Iron Lung posted:yeah but being in southern california arent there just shows constantly? or is this just a misconception from someone who lives in barren phoenix? Yeah there are a lot of shows, especially in LA. But gerfatty's right, the venues are often lovely expensive and have bad sound to boot (House of Blues SD I'm looking at you douches). In San Diego we've got a couple good cheap all ages places like the Che Cafe and Soma. Soma is really infested with annoying high school kids though, the kind that just want to hug their girlfriends while they watch some ska. Only place I've been where kids will just completely flip their poo poo if you run into them  It's a loving concert dude.

The venue is pretty nice though and has a show practically everyday from what I remember, so it's not bad if you're into that whole scene. In other news Brand New is touring small rock clubs in July and I picked up some tickets for the San Francisco date. Oh my god it's going to be amazing. -Atom- fucked around with this message at 17:21 on Jun 11, 2009 |

I got in a fight with a dude who was probably about 16-17 years old at Soma because I accidently elbowed his girl in the face while skanking. Absolutely loving retarded. But the venue is really cool other than the kids and they have tons of shows, so you can't bitch too much. I wish they would stop having the local ska concerts on the sidestage though. It always sells out and then yo ugotta wait in line which always sucks.

Hey Triangulum, Riot Fest is going to be on the West Coast this year (November). Not sure if it'll be the same line-up as Chicago but it should still be good. Not sure how far south it'll be.

A buddy of mine go so frustrated with one of those dudes "protecting their girlfriend" he threw him over the ledge of a sectioned crowd. Only about a 5 foot drop onto people that probably thought he was trying to crowd surf, but funny as poo poo nonetheless.

They can barely "protect" them anyways in most cases and just act like little bitches instead. I mean poo poo, I'm 5'3 and 115 lbs and if I can kick your boyfriend's rear end then there's a problem.

Only place I've been where kids will just completely flip their poo poo if you run into them Soma sucks balls ever since they moved to Midway area and the owner is a little bitch (but that's another story). Che is awesome but pretty small. In Mira Mesa there's an all ages venue called Epicenter. And there is The Jumping Turtle in North County that's all ages as well but I've never been there. Another cool place in SD (not all ages) is Brick by Brick and also Dreamsteet for the bar music scene. They get a lot of metal and poo poo like that. Don't go to LA that much but they got Chain Reaction. Just saw Disembodied there and I really liked it. Sound could have been a little better. In Pomona they got the Showcase, which is also all ages. Showcase is a really cool venue. Saw Unbroken/Undertow/Threadbare there a few weekends ago and was very impressed.

The term "anarcho", at least in my hometown, had changed from its actual meaning to something more derogatory i.e. suburban crusties. We knew it wasn't what the term actually meant, but it was just funny to watch the stupid crusties think we were giving them a compliment.
