I was at my music organization's meeting yesterday and they brought up how the punk scene here is nonexistent. Just looking back and appreciating the bands keeping the scene alive back in my hometown! When I joined this org I had the vision of bringing these bands I befriended up to la because of the very fact there is no punk scene near me. Hoping this can come to fruition soon. I find there's so many talented artists everywhere, but sometimes their success is determined by access to resources.

Me and two other buds started talking about starting a punk band on Thursday, and now itโs Monday and we just had our first rehearsal/jam session and to say we are THE great American punk rock band is an understatement. I apologize for the disappointment when we actually release something.

did not expect to catch a bunch of Italian punk bands from Como in the middle of England last night - but it was a dream. And a reminder of the fucking strange, beautiful nature of music, and the organic networks of community that blossom from picking up instruments and starting a band.
East Anglia has a p strong punk/hardcore/everything adjacent scene and a couple of old heads started a regular all-day gig - East Angrier. These heads had supported a band in Italy and they promised to return the favour.
So here they were, flooding the bar by early evening with sweat, angst, charm and frenetic bursts of Italian as they ordered pints of Guinness.

Why is this such a lost art? Bring together those friends that would never have met other wise. Make the people you love, love each other.
I recently had a small birthday wine n dine with my friends and anticipated awkwardness between my different groups of friends, but it was the complete opposite. God I love my friends and love making a space for them to mingle and laugh in eeeee. I think in a time where my friends and I are transitioning to adulthood and focusing on careers, this brings something to look forward to and a way to create a world outside of work and study.
