Too Fast To Live, Too Young To Die @ the Subliminal Projects Gallery

Too Fast To Live, Too Young To Die @ the Subliminal Projects Gallery March 2011

Last night was the opening for the newest show at Subliminal "Too Fast To Live, Too Young To Die".  It's a collection of photos, flyers and art inspired by the late 70's and early 80's punk rock scene. Ed Colver and Glen E. Friedman should need no introductions, their pics grace the covers of  many albums of hardcore legends (Black Flag, Circle Jerks, Minor Threat...). The same goes for Raymond Pettibon and all his works for SST and bands like Sonic Youths' Goo. Shepard Fairey used another Glen photo for his next punk tribute of Henry Rollins.  Jenny Luna and Weston Smith were also contributors, their pictures were ones that I grew up with but long had forgotten the names of those that took them...
Show started last night and runs through March 26th (FREE too)... Subliminal Projects Gallery
SUBLIMINAL PROJECTS GALLERY 1331 W Sunset Blvd Los Angeles, CA 90026

Fraud

Fraud @ Glasshouse 6/6/11 Yes I know this was the second night of the Outspoken/Mouthpiece/Youth of Today show but this band deserves its own post. Fraud is a brand new band featuring the likes of old hardcore dudes from bands like Chain of Strength, Inside Out, Statue, Excel, Pushed Aside and Against the Wall. And we all know how much I love Chain of Strength, so I was excited to see this bands first show. It was a quick set but they were on fire. I missed Outspoken the first night due to work so I was glad to get a chance to see them Monday night. Mouthpiece had a great set, it was funny to see Ben Merlis in the crowd singing every single song along with Tim.  No Curtis for the second night but Mouthpiece did get Porcell to do Straight Edge Revenge. I'll say it again- Youth of Today were just as great now as they were 20 years ago. But I thought the show was going to end early though,  just past the half way point of Youth of Todays set Ray fell and hurt his leg. Porcell took
