[Bombs Away] Bring the punk

There is another Hub City Productions show going on this very Saturday night in New Brunswick, at 233 Hamilton Street! As I've written here before, these shows have been consistently an awesome and fun time with good bands. It doesn't happen THAT often, so hit it up while it's happening.

This show features Screaming Females and Man In Gray, another excellent band that appears to be hailing from Brooklyn, NY (way to bring the brooklyn bands in town, Jarrett!). Man In Gray is a blistering punk-ass five piece with a female vocalist and one of the dudes in the band sharing some vocal duties. This band is pretty freaking tearin'.

For my part, I have to take my best homey out Saturday night because he's gettin hitched soon, so I will not be at this show. So I expect to your report! I know you lurkers want to write about these shows! Anybody can write for Sceneless. Send me an e-mail and I'll flip the author bit on your account (billy@tankcrash.com).

Next week, a band called Beat Radio is coming to Asbury Lanes from NYC. GREAT STUFF. 'Lectro fuzzy super guitar pop. Go to their myspace page, listen to Treetops, and fall in love. I think I will be attending this event if I can make it down to the shore. That's happening Friday the 13th of October.

What else is going on these next couple of weeks? What shows are you going to? I've had my head up my ass looking for a new place to live, so I need your help to bring this punk. To the comments!

And lastly, some out of town news from Dischord Record's October newsletter, the All Our Power conference, something that perhaps we jersey-ites might draw some inspiration from:

After 21 years of promoting radical social change and youth
empowerment in the nation’s capital, Positive Force DC is preparing
what is arguably its most ambitious project so far: The All Our Power
conference, scheduled from Oct. 6-8, 2006, in Washington DC at St.
Stephens Church, 16th and Newton Streets NW, and other venues. A
mixture of free workshops, music, films, and community outreach, the
conference aims to educate, mobilize and connect people of all ages
from the punk community and give participants the tools needed to
become activists in their larger communities in order to build a
broad grassroots movement for fundamental change.

Joe Lally of Fugazi will be releasing his solo CD as part of All Our
Power at the Saturday, October 7th "Affordable Housing" benefit for
One DC and We Are Family/Northwest Settlement House. Joe will be
sharing the bill with Travis Morrison’s Hellfighters, Head-Roc, and
Pash. Admission is $5, all ages, doors at 6pm, music 7pm-10pm, @ St.
Stephens Church. For more information, please see
www.allourpower.org or call Mark Andersen at 202-487-8698.
