Slowly, slowly, openings , capacity restrictions lifting. . . still a way to go but as Frank Turner sings on The Gathering, “the first time that the beat drops in the bar is going to be biblical!”
The punkest of biblical punk legends Dayglo Abortions make one more trip to Shwarawk City, scene of a majestic iconic show back in the day and if you were there then you know. The DGA from B.C. will be at the Atria, Friday, April 15. Joining them will be TO punk survivors, Random Killing, and, The Nasties, from the Royal City.
