Two Monster Shows in May '11

Curmudgeon Records' Last Hurrah..

Sat May 21st 2011 7pm

Gondola (Philly Heavy Sabbath Riffs. These guys can play)
Human Adult Band (Zud Pliff on the Milk Maid Maiden Dudd)
Company Corvette (Philly Power Trio with real cool & heavy riffs)

@ Curmudgeon Records
31 W. Main St.
Somerville, NJ

Sad but true. Curmudgeon Records will be closing it's doors soon. We will all miss the digging in Somerville. For me, I've been hipped to some really great punk, garage, glam and power violence by these guys since '95 or so. And they've been carrying (and selling) my band's records since I was playing in High School punk bands. Forever grateful for this store. Will be missed. Come say good bye with these heavy jammers.

...and finally, the reason everybody came out, Michael Chapman, UK folk legend, live, in the flesh ():

Mattress @ Meat Town (2011)

What better way to polish off the legacy of Meat Town as a show house than to have Mattress fucking kill it?
