better late than never!

It seems I can't seem to make enough time for this blag. I've already missed one show this week and another is today (though that too is not punk, but it's still decent). All in all there's a-plenty of shows coming up.

First up is your pre-Turkey day Ska show @ Maguire's Hill 16 in Ft. Laud. The Methodaires are a very good "original" ska troupe with a very lovely and talented singer and many talented musicians, so check them out if you've nothing else to do tonight.

Thursday Churchill's brings you a Turkey Day punk show with your favorite miamian street-punk locals. Fill your belly with tryptophan, then your ears with sweet punk rock!

On Friday is the return of the touring Koffin Kats as well as the Arrogant Bastards, and a slathering of more psycho/rocka-billy and punk. I still have pictures from their last showing, with the lead singer half-naked and covered in blood...



Ahh, good times =)

Now, I don't know much about this (yet) but there's apparently an initiative by some local Miami punk groups to try to get a DIY space together for people to work together and form more of a community. I am psyched about this! I really hope they can pull it off. Apparently they have some kind of pool tourney on Saturday but I couldn't find an address (yet), will edit when I find it.

Now, I don't know anything about these artists (I *really* wish I had more time to research) but in the interest of expanding musical horizons, here's a show at The Talent Farm on Sunday. I suggest doing what I should have done and look them up on MySpace and judge for yourself.

The Talent Farm (20911 Johnson St. #111, Pembroke Pines, FL 33029) - Soul Control, Harbinger, Centuries, Betrayed by Life

Another Radio-Active Matinee in Fort Lauderdale. These are great because they're early-as-hell, free and all-ages, so anyone should be able to come out and check out some good local bands. And hey, the record store is pretty pimp too! Give your local independent businesses some love huh?

Radio-Active Records (1930B East Sunrise Blvd, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33304) - To Be Hated, Installing Chaos, The Strikeouts, Gutter Queens

And we wrap up the week with another good 'ol street/hardcore punk show at Churchill's. Sunday is always tough for a late-night punk show, but when the shows get tough, the tough buy RedBull.
