Fu + gazi = great

Hey All

So i got a bunch of new flyers from a friend. I figured posting this one would be best. Never had the pleasure of seeing Fugazi live , but I do remember having the opportunity and passing it up. I did however see one of they're live videos that a friend watched on a weekly basis in college.
Maybe some day down the road they may get back together and tour, most likely not. So below is yet another Flyer from the all mighty Pwac years.

Take care

Got Beat Up

Nah, i never got beat up at a Weston show, but it was the title of a great record they made. I am not sure if i attended this show, but i think thats because Weston played Long Island many many times. Also because of that i thought they where from Long Island, but ended up being from originally Bethlehem, PA.
Either way they where always fun to see live and seemed to be a bunch of nice guys. Just looking at this flyer makes me wish for the days of 6 dollar shows like a cranky old man on the porch. Awesome dude on the flyer with his diving gear or whatever.

Another Flyer For All

So this is a weird one, because i don't remember the headliner at all. I was always a big fan of Stillsuit, wish they had more than one EP to listen to though. I may post more today if i get around to scanning more flyers.

Love That PWAC

Hey everyone

Today I decided to post a cool flyer from the hey day of the PWAC on long Island. It was also later known as the Common Ground and very well known in the Tri-state area. If it wasn't for the people who ran that place i would seen 80% less shows back in high school. The weekdays had cool local band shows followed up by big touring bands on the weekend. It was a damn shame they got closed down, but i guess great things must always come to an end.

First Cool Show Ever

Hey Flyer People

Below is the first cool underground show i ever attend. I remember skinheads fighting during Ox Blood and hiding behind 2 park cars inside the venue with my best friend Nick. I vaguely remember Edna's Goldfish taking the stage and rocking out. Mind over matter was intense and the crowd went berserk for Mephiskapheles, you could feel the tension before the music started.
When i think about it this show was a nice mixed bag of music genres. Now a days if you see a show mixing genres people seem to always say why are they playing together. Never understood why people say that when it makes a show seem more diverse and memorable.
This is my first real posting and adventure into blogland so i hope if you have any old flyers from your past, please send them my way.

Adios
