I was fucking around on my guitar for the first time in months, trying to play some Kill Your Idols (did I mention how terrible I am at guitar?) when I kept defaulting to their song “I Told You So.” Since I’ve been on such a huge kick of their split with Good Riddance lately, […]
Die Choking, Eaten Alive, Mister Lizard, Bathe, Ratkicker Live In Philly (8/10/17)
A few weeks ago, I headed out to Philly’s intimate dive The Barbary to catch Ratkicker who was opening for Die Choking with a pretty stacked lineup. It’s been about 3 years since I’ve seen these Philly punks, and since they were up first I made sure to get there nice and early. Ratkicker: It’s […]
Barnaby Jones, Censors Live In Long Island (8/19/17)
So quick note before I start the post: the guitarist of Censors and Barnaby Jones (Justin) is a pretty big Twitch user and live-streamed the show, which was a going away party for him as he is moving. Censors starts at around 2:05, and Barnaby Jones starts around 2:55. Watch live video from HCJustin on […]
Kill Your Idols, Violent Society Live In Philly (7/29/17)

The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, The Pietasters live in Philly (7/28/17)

Tsunami Bomb Live In Philly (7/18/17)
When I saw that California’s Tsunami Bomb recently reunited, and was playing the 1st of 3 East coast dates at one of my favorite spots Kung Fu Necktie, I immediately bought a ticket… I haven’t seen them play a show since they opened for The Bouncing Souls sometime in 03/04. It wasn’t until after I […]
