this better not be an April Fool's joke. any idea who's in this form of the bruisers?

Vanilla Gorilla - 4-1-2012 at 07:37 PM

the Bruisers, with Al singing?

random - 4-1-2012 at 08:00 PM

Don't know if Al is singing, but I would assume so. It's up on the Bruisers Facebook page run by Jeff Morris. I'd be surprised at a Bruisers show with Jeff but not Al.

Eh....I'd like to see Close Shave...Anyone excited about Stars & Stripes should be beaten with a rake.

I'm outta town that weekend,anyways..Oh,well.

MattyA - 4-1-2012 at 10:08 PM

I wonder if the Friday lineup will be like last year, when Condemned 84 played at the Underground? That would be cool seeing the Bruisers in a small stage setting.

Johnny_Whistle - 4-2-2012 at 12:11 AM

Rioux posted on his page that he's in.

Bruisers facebook update:

The lineup: Al Barr, Jeff Morris, Dan Connors, Johnny Rioux, Scotty Vierra

Duffy - 4-2-2012 at 10:25 AM

Great lineup. Bummed the London Diehards got bullied off the list though.

ShawnRefuse - 4-2-2012 at 10:33 AM

Bruisers!!

Mark Lind - 4-2-2012 at 12:14 PM

Blah blah.

Discipline - 4-2-2012 at 01:04 PM

I need to win the lottery.

JawnDiablo - 4-2-2012 at 01:51 PM

would love to see Evil Conduct.
Easily one of the best bands I have been turned onto in recent years

They did the same to Ritchie back at the other reunion. Pretty bullshit. Here's Ritchie's latest Facebook post, very fitting...

"brothers til the end? I've gotten more loyalty and respect from a bag of fucking chips."

Mark Lind - 4-2-2012 at 04:40 PM

Blah blah

I'm amazed they even tried to put them on the bill at this point. Let me guess... MAD made it clear that they'd pull their bands if [insert apolitical right-wing band] plays?

London Diehards, Haircut, Pressure 28, and plenty of other bands I can't think of at the moment would get dropped immediately because of that. Actually, I'm pretty sure Haircut got dropped from a Cock Sparrer for that reason.

Hell, not that there are any rumors, but I half-assume that Slapshot got dropped off the Boston Cock Sparrer show because they're touring with Krawalbruder who supposedly have a reputation for being right-wing or at least not openly condemn it enough, and MAD made threats to pull Sparrer if Slapshot stayed on the bill.

couldn't you quote the whole thing to make me look like less of an asshole.

i should've checked... i had a feeling MAD booked slapshot. the rest of what i said... MAD has that reputation, and it sounds like they've earned it. i was also thinking about shawn's comment about slapshot getting pulled.

to paraphrase it:

"what politics?"
"i dunno, but it's always politics.

yea but maybe they wanted to have bands that won't be easily persuaded to drop off like last year.

DeLorenzo - 4-3-2012 at 07:49 AM

GIUDA!!!!

ShawnRefuse - 4-3-2012 at 10:07 AM

blah blah blah. Show looks good that's all that matters and the Boston CS show is gonna be awesome. I can't wait.

Hey, remember when music was why we came here because it was the only board without gossip. Let's bring that back.

Johnny_Whistle - 4-3-2012 at 11:25 AM

I'd love to see Fear again. One of my favorite shows from the early 90's at the Middle East down. Saturday definitely looks like the best night for me, although I'd rather see Uprisers than Yellow Stitches.

And I didn't know Slapshot had been dropped from the CS show. Anyone know what the full lineup for that gig will be?

Dennis Mc - 8-30-2012 at 12:12 PM

Anyone interested in picking me up some merch send me a u2u.

Furly - 8-30-2012 at 02:36 PM

Wish I was going, but couldn't get it off of work..
However I was one of the lucky few that got to see the bruisers last night do a kinda private family/friends show. They still bring me back to my hooligan youth. If you're able to go to the Conn show you should!
