I’m feeling a bit under the weather tonight so I’m taking a pass on DeeDee Starr’s birthday show at Green Auto.
Nothing like good friends to get you through the tough times, like all my film crew pals in this shot from our last show there. You guys know who you are…
Sayyad’s doom outfit Hushed is also playing!
Not gonna lie, I’m pretty excited about this one. Chad is playing a handful of dates in the Pacific Northwest, and we’ve gotta pretty cool lineup to support him and his new outfit on April 9th at Lanalou’s.
Thanks to John Burwood for the fab drawing of Trump in a hockey sweater.
Get your advance tickets here!
This one was a really great time. My hat is off to those stalwarts who managed to pull off double duty and catch sets at the Dead End Drive In show at Green Auto and still make it to Lana’s in time for Dead Bars!
There’s some photos from Dave Ballantyne on the gallery page, and Allan MacInnis blogged about the evening on his Alienated in Vancouver site, in case you missed it.
SLIP~ons/Modern Terror/Indications
Come celebrate our new single, a tribute to Detroit’s infamous Graystone Hall, with sets by SLIP~ons, Modern Terror and, Indications!
Come celebrate the March Born!
We’ve had so much fun with our rehearsal space parties the last couple years. This time we’re going bigger and YOU are invited!
We’re stoked to let on that the Slips’ “Heavy Machinery” EP is now available in Japan from our brothers in arms at Waterslide Records
Come celebrate the epic summer we are having, and enjoy some rad local bands playing songs from their new releases!
Well, the songs have been mixed, the songs have been mastered, vinyl sides have been prepared. The inner sleeve and jacket layouts are done, and the first single and title track of our new EP came out on all your favourite platforms on May 19th, 2023. Thanks to all of you who pre-saved the track and have been listening and following us!
The 12″ vinyl and remaining songs from the EP came out June 30th, and we have filled all pre-orders at this point. If you are in Vancouver, you can pick up a copy at Red Cat Records on Main St. or you can order from our bandcamp.
For those of you who prefer to buy at your local mom & pop record store, you can ask them to order you in one from Cobraside Distribution.
Thanks tons to all of you who have bought a copy already! Feel free to spread the word!
Seattle punks Dead Bars come to Lanalou’s with renaissance man, Jon Snodgrass and his buddies. Joined by Vancouver’s own SLIP~ons, dannyboy (of the Corps)
So while we continue to wait for the last two mixes from Dave, I decided to release another song from the 2011 sessions at Hotel2Tango with Bond Head and Jonathan, two of my former bandmates from Doughboys. This one was mixed by Howard and mastered by Ronan Chris Murphy and is a bit more melancholy and less heavy than the last one. It will also be a digital single, and will be released on January 27th, 2023.
If you’re a Spotify user, you can pre-save the track here. For the rest of you, I’ll make sure it gets on my bandcamp at some point.
I also asked RD Cane to take a stab at a video for it, so will be uploading that to the Scamindy Youtube channel in time for the release.
In the meantime, its -9 here in Vancouver, so I’m going to attempt to shovel out my car so I can get some provisions to get through Christmas!
Happy Holidays everyone!
