I'd like to see The Dwarves, American Steel and Far From Finished on a show. I'm all set with the others. Maybe with The Bodies on as an opener for curiousity's sake.

The Casualties need to get a new singer. The songs of theirs thay I've heard are great musically, but the second he opens his mouth the song is ruined.

i'd like to see american steel, far from finished, and street dogs.

the casualties suck. when they played the bruisers reunion show, i walked out during their set.

cockney rejects?? wtf is that a misprint? am i the only one who thinks this is odd?

MarkV - 11-20-2008 at 05:29 PM

Yeah, it's pretty odd. I didn't know they were active until I saw them on the listing for this a while back. Show is them, Street Dogs, I think the Bodies and FFF.

Why didn't you mention the good bands in the thread title?

BDx13 - 11-20-2008 at 08:05 PM

copy and paste, my man - this aint a full time job!

random - 11-20-2008 at 08:09 PM

hahaha. Fair enough.

I would love to see Cockney Rejects, Street Dogs, CH3, Far From Finished, Manic Hispanic, and The Bodies. I've seen Street Dogs a few times, but not enough. I saw CH3 at last year's Fun Fun Fun Fest and thought they were great after all these years, but have never gotten to see the rest of those bands.

The Casualties are a prime example of Cartoon Punk and make me sick, I can't understand how anybody out of high school could be a fan. I had the first album, thought it was kinda ok, but the three foot mohawks and perfect liberty spikes along with all the right gear to impress the fashionistas turned me off. Then they just kept putting out the same record over and over and somehow got a name for themselves as they became less a parody of Exploited and more a parody of themselves.

While it's still a bit of a drive, Vegas isn't too out of the question. Depending on when this is going down and what the price and all that shit is, I might have to think about actually going for the handful of good bands.

TIS-
To be honest, I don't know if they have a lot of fans much older than that. They've kind of basically become the "real punk band" for the warped tour demo.

This is the only MOHAWKS that are noteworthy:

Not sure what's odd about the COCKNEY REJECTS, they've been over here in the past few years.

MarkV - 11-23-2008 at 07:22 PM

Really? When were they here last? They did one of those mondo oi/punk fests, but I don't remember anything since then.

Yeah, they did that festival a couple years back here in California and put out a couple new albums in the past few years.

I think the surprise is that they're coming over for PRB. I'm actually kind of psyched.

Yeah, I'll probably end up going now. I was actually going to bail on it this year. I got the impression that everyone thought that they were not together by the comments.

MarkV - 11-24-2008 at 12:04 AM

Yeah, I meant actively touring when I said, "active." As we know, none of these bands will ever actually go away.
