Upcoming Festival: Mutant Transmissions 2
Great news for art punks and weird wave fiends it has just been announced that the second annual Mutant Transmissions Festival will take place in NYC on April 5th and 6th, 2009.
Last years MTF took place in LA and spotlighted a slew of excellent west coast bands as well as some interlopers. This year mutant Transmissions hits NYC which will give a an opportunity for the east coast weirdos to join in the fun. MT is a DIY event and invites local art and music community to get involved in planning and production. The younger crowd is also not excluded since the festival is traditionally an all ages event and every one is embraced with equal id not all together sane enthusiasm. Watch for the line up and updates on Mutant Transmissions Myspace. To join in the fun email mutanttransmissions at gmail dot com.
Upcoming Show: ONE BIG CROWD (NYC 80’s Punk)
I miss old punk shows , i miss circle pits at CBGBs, all my friends going crazy to a good band. I need a punk fix, and just in time here comes ONE BIG CROWD. Saturday December 6, 2008 at Knitting Factory OBC is a tribute to infamous NYC 80’s club A7. with over 30 early hardcore punk bands from east coast. No we are not talking a bastard of metal and punk that hardcore became later. This is real punk, raw, fast and infectious. A rare chance to see many of these early bands , few of which are doing a one off.
