Wormtown Weekend






The weekend is here, and it's time to play.
Friday, The Fighting Cocks, featuring Jamie Severance of Wormtown faves Unattached are at JJ Sports bar in Northboro. I know, why not in the city? I asked Jamie that same question last time I saw him and he said his band can't get a gig at Ralph's. Boy, how times have changed. So do them and yourself a favor and head down Route 9 for an evening of great music.
Saturday, Sasquatch and the Sick A Billys return to the Lucky Dog for The Holy Hell Hoedown IV. Sasquatch has recently been touring with his Psycho Metal band and putting the Sick A Billys on hold, so here's you chance to see them in town again.
Over at The Ship Room at The Hotel Vernon, it's another FREE punk show with Gas Attack, Slitstich, The Allston Pants , and those TV Stars, The Pity Whores. In these tough economic times, there is no better way to fight those cover charges and drink 1 dollar Narragansetts. The folks at Narragansett have launched a new website that you should check out. Especially the Gansett Girls. Another reason to love that beer.
And finally, if you are in Madrid, Spain, Lyres are playing on Saturday at Caracol for Go, Sinner Go! vol 4. I'll be there!!!

Wormtown Weekend







Here we are, Memorial Day Weekend, the kick off of Summah 2009, and it's chock full of rock.
Tonight over at Ralph's it's more Punk than you can handle as Trickstah presents The Pathetics, Bottlefight, The McGunks, Switchblade Suicide, and Sins of America. You better call in sick on Friday, you'll need to rest.
Saturday, Milltown Rods presents The 100 Percent Kulture Hot Rod & Kustom Show at Ralph's Diner starting at Noon. This is a FREE show, and features not only cool cars but cool music with Pulp 45, Soul Reapin 3, Preston Wayne 4, and The Long Goodbyes. Last year this was a great time, and this year should be just as good. Hot fun under the sun.
Then at night the show continues upstairs with 7 bands (see flyer) including the return of Angry Johnny and the Killbillies. It's been quite a while since Angry and the boys played Wormtown, what with Angry losing his mind last year, but now they are back and not to be missed.
Over at The Raven on Pleasant St, there is a Punk Rock Spectacular with The Numbskulls, The Sentence, The Murder, Nix Bitches, and fresh from their appearance on The Jerry Springer Show, The Pity Whores. Even though they lost the competition, seeing them on national TV was great. Ask them for all the backstage dirt.
Then spend the rest of the weekend honoring the fallen soldiers who made this the land of the free.
