Stitches – The Bodies – Smogtown – and Amoebas – at The Beauty Bar – Las Vegas, NV

Friday night The Beauty Bar hosted Amoebas, Smogtown, The Bodies, and The Stitches. The show at The Beauty Bar was one of several shows taking place in Downtown Las Vegas as a prelude to the festivities of the 14th annual Punk Rock Bowling and Music Festival.

By the time we rolled in there, we may have missed the opener if they even played at all, but drinks were flowing as Smogtown provided a surf skate Punk rock element to this line up that was reminiscent of the Southern California Punk scene.

Afterward The Bodies performed a 45 minute set full of high energy and were followed by headliners The Stitches. Orange County Punk Rock Veterans, The Stitches, provided an over-the-top performance primarily enabled by the band's vocalist Michael Lohrman. No fancy stage lights or barricades at The Beauty Bar, just raw, in-your-face Rock N Roll played just the way it was intended!

Beauty Bar's PRB kickoff party provided Downtown Las Vegas with a dose of Southern California Punk Rock quality(Although Amoebas hail from Michigan) and opened up Memorial Day weekend with full Punk Rock force and attitude.
