All Ages!

Well, I had no idea.  Red Eyed Fly is all ages all the time.  Great.  All you youngsters that are the next wave of punk rockers(I'm talking to you Zacky Boothe), but can't get into the regular clubs, now is your time. 

This week's Monday was kind of okay.  Nobody wanted to step up to the Lightning Reaction until later in the night after the music stopped.  Then it was a laugh riot.  I'll bring it along on the 17th just in case there are any brave souls in the crowd. 

Don't drive yet or don't have a car?  Ride the bus!

Good Show!

The first Punk night went pretty well.  We had Everyday Destruction, Violent Night, and Jane Doe Eyes on stage.  I broadcast the entire show on Ustream and recorded the last set.  Next time, I'll record the entire show.  I was a little hesitant to hit the record button because I wasn't sure if it was going to affect the stream.  It might have, but the video turned out okay. 

I wrote up some punk rock trivia while I was working on the POS system at a Dunkin Donuts.  Angie from The Beat Dolls stepped up as Quiz Master.  It was fun and we gave out some Monday Night Punk Rock t-shirts to the most knowledgeable punks.  Oh yeah, Dunkin Donuts hooked us up with free donuts for the show!  Next Monday will be just as much fun and we'll have more stuff to give away so brush up on your trivia.

Punk Bands Needed!

My band, The Scary Mondelos, will be playing at Headhunters this Saturday night the 18th.  You better believe we're gonna have Christmas presents to give away!  Last show before the Holidays.

If you wanna drop off a demo for our punk nights starting next year, come on down and give it to Angie from The Beat Dolls or ask for me by name...Ramon.  Like I said before, we need a ton of punk bands for these.  See you guys at the show!

Monday nights at Red Eyed Fly!

Starting in January, Little Plastic Records will be putting on monday night punk shows at Red Eyed Fly's inside lounge area.

It will be 21 and up(for now), no cover, 3 or 4 punk bands, 8-midnight, Lots of giveaways, door prizes, and bar Olympics between bands. Ever heard of the game Lightning Reaction?  We will have it and give away prizes to the winners.  KAOS Radio!

This is our chance to build the scene back up and have fun in the process.  We're starting on Monday nights because you have to start somewhere, but who knows where we go from there.  We have 5 Monday nights to make this work, so we'll be needing some bands.  If you're interested, leave a comment or email us.
