Lincoln, Nebraska is a far cry from the "punk city" status of a place like Boston or Los Angeles. In fact, my town serves as little more than a rest stop for touring bands to get gas, stock up on Slim-Jims and have conversations along the lines of "Man, I'm glad I don't live here." Needless to say, we don't get as many shows as we'd like to, but when a band does decide to book a show in one of our humble venues, we are very appreciative and show up in force. While Midwestern punk scenes lack the bragging rights and reputations of our brother scenes on the East and West coasts, the geographical direness of our situation only affirms cohesion within the scene and passionate appreciation for the music that runs through its veins.

hey i was there too. was a good show for sure. i was MDC's roadie for both thier american tours this year and it was a blast! one the highlights was the show on 9-11 in thompkins square park NYC. there were about 2500 people there and the biggest fucking circle pit ive ever seen! also there was the original choking victim!! and dr. know! hey dunno if this review guy knows this or not, but in elections nebraska divides its electoral votes by population. Its actually not that red. about half are blue and half are red. Nope Bill, I wasn't at that show. We will meet some day. I'm afraid when we do though, its going to take away the magic! A Wrench in the Gears records Maybe you guys just have similar taste in music. Mr. OKSoda, were you at the Effigies show at DePaul this summer where Raining Bricks opened? Because if you were at that too, then that's just weird. Hey Will, I don't know if you'll see this or not so I'll re-post it next time i see you post, but here's the I Attack record for order http://www.wrenchrecords.com/order.html They sell it at their shows and I've seen it at one other record store around here, but never anywhere else. It took me until the third time seeing them to finally get it. And even then I had to go find Rob the singer and follow him into the back room to get one. It's really fucking good though. Yeah, I think the guitarist was in Los Crudos, but I'm not sure about that. as long as ya DANCE muthafuckas!!! S.o.d. Name this band: Not to hog this message board, but I like how the review noted the fist pumping, because I'm noticing this, too. try to find a disney land in africa ...... not asia not nebraska The hooser is welcome to look for me on the streets of downtown Kansas City, KS. Wait...Did someone challenge Will to a fight on here? I can't tell because they went ahead and spelled it will (no capital W). But that'd be the shit. I don't even like Will that much and I'd support him because anyone who challenges anyone over the internet is a chump! With a capital "C". To the Anonymous poseur-smacker: score is for the band... and all they've done. Bill, I've been looking for the "I Attack" LP forever now, to no avail. Were they selling one, by chance? Bill, I've been looking for the "I Attack" LP forever now, to no avail. Were they selling one, by chance? If you REALLY wanted to support your scene, you wouldn't have ignored your local openers. haha Bill, I was at that MDC show! And a buddy of mine is in the one opening band you said you didn't like, Raining Bricks. Thats perfect. will fight me.........or post a picture of yourself...........go ahead i dare you So... Actually.....there probably are literally MILLIONS of cops who should be dead. Not ALL, but fuck man I'm from LA and let me tell you, the police ARE NOT out to help you. I love the name. "Ian Stuart, King of the skinheads, tough as he can be....OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! WATCH OUT FOR THAT TREE!" Shitty name for a shitty band. Yeah dead cops are awesome, right? "Yeah dead cops are awesome, right?" To the below noter - They did play "John Wayne..." No "John Wayne Was A Nazi"? That's their best song, I think. Fuck yeah, it's good that Millions of Dead Cops (MDC) finally played a show in the conservative-bible belt of the midwest.... I caught this in Chicago. It was a real good show, and my last show at the bottom lounge. Two of the three opening bands were real good. Chronic Seizure and I Attack (even though they only played five minutes). MDC were great, even if at times they tended to almost play the songs too fast. Shitty name for a shitty band. Yeah dead cops are awesome, right? Boston? phish used to play lincoln mdc rules. MDC is a great band, right up there with dead kennedys, black flag, minor threat, etc |
