Anyone who wasn't posing hard in the 90s ordered records from No Idea. Groomers have never heard of No Idea.

As if people needed another reason to avoid Gainesville

anonymous 4/13/2022 2:02:17 PM

Grey Matter as in 80s DC indie rock band Grey Matter? Probably not with their name being so small & far down on the poster.

anonymous 4/13/2022 2:10:58 PM

really disappointed this comment section has 0 war on women burns. Cmon now.

anonymous 4/13/2022 2:23:54 PM

Guaranteed someone in Bouncing Souls will have more zippers on their plaid pants than there will be people watching them.

anonymous 4/13/2022 2:29:56 PM

^^^ Where is the woman who called out TWOW? If she's not gonna hammer this band with accusations why should anyone else?

anonymous 4/13/2022 2:38:45 PM

anonymous 4/13/2022 6:54:07 PM

Piebald were third tier pre-internet pedos

anonymous 4/13/2022 7:16:19 PM

Middle-Aged Queers. A great name for a band name because it sums up the state of heavy metal in the year 2022.

anonymous 4/13/2022 7:37:24 PM

LOL @ any human being attending. The worst of the worst of the worst.

anonymous 4/13/2022 8:47:24 PM

anonymous 4/14/2022 9:27:06 AM

If you want to see how tolerant, open minded, and free thinking punk fans are then head along to this wearing an anti-vax tshirt

anonymous 4/14/2022 11:12:38 AM

"If you want to see how tolerant, open minded, and free thinking punk fans are then head along to this wearing an anti-vax tshirt" Apparently being "open minded" to you means embracing people who espouse potentially harmful health disinformation to the general public.

anonymous 4/14/2022 3:24:09 PM

Give it a fuc king rest with Restraining Order already. Every time I see them they're headlining but they're not a true headliner - more like they play last cuz they draw 20-30 people tops vs. The undercard drawing < 10 paid each. Hey Restraining Order headline The Middle East Upstairs with two no draw bands (say two new bands making their debuts) & if you sell it that space you are a real draw. Until then stop being king of the no draws.

anonymous 4/14/2022 7:01:55 PM

Grey Matter is an "emotional skacore" band from Michigan, per the website and their bandcamp, not a reunion show of the Dischord legends.

anonymous 4/14/2022 7:02:38 PM

I would like to see City of Caterpillar again. Caught Majority Rule at a reunion show just before the pandemic and they weren't as tight as their day but it scratched an itch.

anonymous 4/14/2022 7:07:09 PM

The Butts play The Fest.

anonymous 4/15/2022 4:13:47 AM

Flying Raccoon Suit

anonymous 4/15/2022 10:43:36 AM

Nobody will be dressed like adults. Pass.

anonymous 4/15/2022 11:39:52 AM

Horsewhip is tight tho.

anonymous 4/17/2022 7:15:28 PM
