Middle East Upstairs

Guns Up!
Ashers
For The Worse
Watchfire
Word for Word

This was quite the line up to conclude the 3 day Boston Rules, Ok? music festival. I'm not as into hardcore as I used to be but still enjoyed myself over all. Below are a few pictures of Guns Up! with their former roadie on vocal duties.

Moving on...

4/5/10
Great Scott, Allston MA

Smoke or Fire
Dan Webb and the Spiders
Jeff Rowe

This was the 4th show I believe in as many days for Smoke or Fire's return to MA. They certainly did not disappoint. They covered a lot of ground from Above the City to This Sinking Ship, a few cuts from the new 7in on fat wreck chords, and I believe a song from their time as Jericho/Jericho RVA.

Dan Webb and the Spiders are easily one of the best things going today for Allston punk rock. Featuring members of way too many bands, they ripped through songs from their self titled album and new cd "Oh Sure". There really are no words to adequately describe how much fun these guys are live.

Opening the show was Jeff Rowe of Larcenist, formerly of Tomorrow The Gallows, Boxingwater, and a few other bands here and there. His set included original songs, TTG songs, Larcenist songs, and a lot of singing along. He's been playing all over town more and more and it would do you a lot of good to go check him out.

Thats all for now, but I promise to update more often, and hopefully with more content.
