Upcoming Charlotte Shows

There's so much rad stuff coming up in Charlotte.

TOMORROW!!!!!

Bukkake Boys
American Cheeseburger
Logic Problem

At the record store. As always, make sure you bring money. Logic Problem's 7" is one of the best things to come out of north carolina in a long time, and I'm sure they'll be loud again, like always. American Cheeseburger is great and fast and their split with candian rifle is a keeper. Bukkake Boys I've heard more about than actually seen evidence of, but they're supposed to be phenomenal, and atlanta hardcore bands hardly ever play here, it's also a great warm up for:

LUNCHBOX RECORDS 3 YEAR ANNIVERSARY
part 1:

Graf Orlock
Lowbrow
Lewd Acts

An eclectic show to kick off the weekend. Graf Olock is one of those bands that even if you hate recorded, you should see live at least once. They're just phenomenal, and I think their whole schtick is pretty awesome. Lowbrow is one of the only hardcore bands in charlotte really trying to do something right now, and that rules. I don't really like lewd acts, but everyone else does, so I'm sure they'll at least be cool live

part 2:

Fucked Up
Double Negative
Grids
Planet Piss

Friday February 24th, at the Milestone. I probably don't really have to explain much for this. You're either going to come see an awesome show that's going to sell out, or you're going to sit at home and then in a few months get so tired of hearing how awesome this show was that you just off yourself right there in front of everyone. Also, stay tuned and pay attention for some pretty radical info about other stuff happening the weekend of this.

Then the following weekend, all the local bands previously mentioned are coming together for a FREE show at UNCC! It's like the endless month of partying. I'm sure penalty box will be having an after party for this:

Grids
Logic Problem
Lowbrow
Obstruction
Planet Piss

and there is FREE FOOD at this show. It's like they opened joe's mind, pulled out everything he was thinking about, and dumped it into a show, except there aren't any naked boobs next to the chicken wings. if only...

Also, I went to Austin, and it ruled. I destroyed a rental car, but paid 15 bucks for insurance and don't owe a dime!

then I saw a field filled with giant pieces of art

then made facon
