In 1980s Texas, being a punk mostly meant playing in front of 25 people and trying to keep from getting the shit kicked out of you.

In 1980s Texas, being a punk mostly meant playing in front of 25 people and trying to keep from getting the shit kicked out of you. Instead of changing ways, some of us continue to tempt the fates with our harebrained schemes. The stageFARM, led by my old hardcore buddy Alex Kilgore, is the perfect example, and proof that arming yourself with punk rock thieving and drug copping experiences can one day translate into almost viable art.

Tonight’s 4th ANNUAL $hakedown will get you 4 bands, all you can drink beer and Gibby Haynes DJing for $20* bucks. If that aint Texas, I’ll kiss your ass. So support the scene past, present, and future.

    Punk was always about theater even when the Ramones turned it into Sha-Na-Na. The Bambi Killers are actually pretty sick chicks.

  3. ?????? says:

    RIP Biscuit. There’s a bit too much Rollins these days. Where the hell is Gary. Somebody said he wasn’t even invited to the Dicks reunion shows.

  5. Spot says:

    Gary Floyd of the Dicks, Henry Rollins & Biscuit of the Big Boys. No place but Texas. No see Gibby

  6. drippy dog dix and cum bubbles or something says:

    Holy Shit, The Bambi Killers had to be created specifically for performing at The Box and nowhere else, right? Hot chicks can get away with so much more bullshit than guys…

    Really niggers? You still can’t get off punks dick? Isn’t it about time to let your childhood go? Or at least find new toys to play with when the old ones are broken beyond repair?

    The very day that photo was taken in Austin some frat boy called me fag at a 7-11 for have a shaved head. So you calling this gay makes me nostalgic in way for the days when at least music mattered. Today? What awesome band are you going to see in NYC tonight? Haha. Can’t we can agree that going to an event, rammed with wannabe starlets, in order to flaunt your musical IQ should me left to the obsessives at Pitchfork or BrooklynVegan? This here is about partying.

    Make noise not music kiddies. Support or Death!
