The Adicts – World Inferno / Friendship Society – at House of Blues – Hollywood, CA
January 28, 2012
When the line outside the House of Blues stretches up the hill, around the corner, and down the block, it can only mean one thing, The Adicts are in town. This was indeed the case this Saturday, as the Viva tour rolled into Los Angeles. The tour started a few days earlier, warming up in Reno and Oakland, then hitting Anaheim for a sold-out Friday night which reputedly still turned away 400 disappointed Punk rockers. Read more
The Adicts – World Inferno / Friendship Society – The Killer Smiles – at House of Blues – Anaheim, CA
January 27, 2012
There's a joke about every Adicts show that longtime fans usually agree on, and it's that it seems as though an Adicts show is typically many a punk's first show experience. Despite the elitist sentiments that older punks have regarding how many times they've been to an Adicts show, an Adicts show brings together both youngster and veteran alike. By the end of the night, both sides become intermingled as they vie for beach balls and sing along to songs about who spilt whose beer and why no one's crazy anymore. Read more
Peter and the Test Tube Babies – at Beat Generator Live – Dundee, UK
January 21, 2012
Our road trip to Dundee got under way with 2 cars, 10 guys and of course loads of beer (except Dod). After several hours in the pub, we arrived at the Beat Generator Live bang on time. It is a smallish venue with I think about 200 capacity and there couldn’t have been far off that amount in for the gig tonight. Read more
Radioactive Chicken Heads – at The Viper Room – Hollywood, CA
January 21, 2012
If you've been away from Los Angeles for a while, you may not recognize the Sunset Strip so easily any more. Corporations have taken over a lot of the venues, and pay to play has turned an area that launched everyone from The Doors to Motley Crue, hosted Frank Zappa, and inspired The Standells, into yet another boring strip mall of radio-safe over-processed bland and boring blah. Except last Saturday,

Venganza – The Helpless – La Voz – Kruel – Blighted – Corpspazam – at The Spot in Los Angeles, CA (El Sereno)
January 6, 2012
The good people of the Los Angeles Pyrate Punx chapter hosted one of the first gnarly DIY shows of the year at their headquarters dubbed “The Spot” in El Sereno this past weekend. This show wasn’t an ordinary gig, oh no, it was something much more entirely; it served as a benefit to raise funds to help keep Big Wheel from going off line. Read more
