I'm glad that everything cool happens on the west coast or in Europe. That makes it easier on us East Coast kids that dont want to be bothered by cool things like punk rock concerts.

Everytime I see a band with an SK in their name, I can't help but think of Skrewdriver. I have never heard of Skarp, but I doubt they are of the same ilk as Skrewdriver. I think I just associate SK with a bunch of fascist, bigoted nazis thanks to Skrewdriver.

The non-racist punk band as well as the reggae one are good listens.

Dave from AT here: Jelvins are playing Seattle on the 30th and 31st, all ages the 30th, restricted 31st. The 30th is Akimbo and Skarp, DOA cancelled unfortunately, but someone else may play. The 31st is Big Business, Evaps and The Makers. Skarp is a great crust/grind band who are from Seattle. They used to do some ska type shit too, hence the name SKArp.

I just downloaded "1 in 5", and it's pretty damn good. I'm searching for some more shit on them. Any female fronted band that mixes crusty metal with ska intrigues me.

We already have our tickets for New Years Eve as we're flying out to Seattle on 27th Dec to get away from this "rubbish" country (UK) for a while... anything good to do in Seattle? It seems shows stop on Dec 23rd, and don't start again until Feb! Where can I find a proper DIY gigs listing for the period 27th Dec to Jan 11th? Cheers, Dave.

Their art museum is having a Spanish art exhibit that looks like fun.

FatTony (December 16, 2004)

I already went. It's totally lame and not worth the price of admission (something like $15, though I didn't pay for my ticket, so I wasn't that pissed). However, they do have a glass artwork exhibit on the top floor that has some amazing stuff, but it's sorta small. Still, if you skip the Spanish exhibit, you only have to pay like $7 to get in.

Someone (December 16, 2004)

Yeah... I am thinking more gigs, bars, Twin Peaks tours, that kinda thing! Dave!

Maybe this is the year that our prayers are finally answered and that cesspool of a state falls into the ocean for good.

Club Underground and Club 82 are having an 18+ NYE party at The Echo. The Adored are playing. $10. xx
