Fell down a YouTube music video rabbit hole. The kids are out there making joyously noisy punk rock as good as it ever was.

Finally, another festival video! This one's the "cleaned up" version, because there were children present and one of those was the drummer's kid and he doesn't want to have to explain using that kind of language when he gets home. youtu.be/btG1XMYgXLE

Experimented with minimalistic kick and toms only approach. Got repetitive with the words too. It was cathartic, like a punk rock trance. -BC

If you’re in Columbus, OH, head down to the Community Festival this weekend. It’s a delightful family-friendly antifascist fest, with a great diverse music lineup, just like every year.

We’ll also be playing this one at Summerfest. If tech folks have to explain what a union is to their kids, good.

We WILL be playing this at Summerfest, but adjusting the lyrics a bit, so our peers don’t have to explain some of the words to their kiddos.

At this point, I have way more lyrics than we have music. At what point do I admit I’ve just been writing poetry?

A 22” surdo (large vertical Brazilian marching bass drum) sitting on the floor in front of an electronic drum kit.
Our drummer’s wife, who is beautiful and generous to a fault, has gifted him with a surdo as an early birthday present. It’s big. It’s loud. It’s portable. It’s an absolute delight.
