Initiate @ Rec Center 12/23/18 Record Release for one of my favorite bands right now, Initiate.  Don't know why but this line up changed a few times. I'm just glad it still happened. Nice little spot in the seedier parts of LA.  It was fun having my old boss of Ambassador Records come out and hang out.  Initiate Initiate Initiate Wise Wise Jinx Jinx Entry Soul Power Construct

Diztort @ Top Space 10/13/18 This show was sold out before I even got there... damn it! First I missed the Bridgetown show and now I drive out to LA to get denied again. Kiabad, Mario and I were debating trying to sneak in or just go to Del Taco in Culver to get some of those veggie tacos, luckily someone helped us out and got us in. Bonus R.O.C. added to the bill for a short but sweet set. This show has a great line up but honestly I really drove all the out there just to see Coochiehead. HE RULES! Due to technical difficulties it was a short set but I was happy witnessing and documenting this performance. Let's not forget Step for Change and what might be their last show ever. Very emotional set from Ish and the boys.  Diztort Diztort Diztort Diztort Mizery R.O.C.   Step For Change Step For Change Coochiehead Dead Heat

Ex Youth @ Programme 9/1/18 I like when shows are close and the line up is nice and short. It was nice to see Walter return with a new band and always down to shoot whatever project  Anthony Anzaldo comes to town with. And it's always a treat to see my two kids from Drug Control Danny and Derek.  Ex Youth Ex Youth   Ex Youth   Drug Control   Drug Control   Entry Entry   DRK BLU DRK BLU

Culture Abuse @ the Echo 7/27/18 This might have been the show of the year... best record release ever! Got there super late and missed lots of rad bands like World Be Free, Grave School and the Bronx. But I did catch the last two bands and still had a blast. Easily one of my favorite records of the year. Culture Abuse Culture Abuse Culture Abuse Culture Abuse Culture Abuse Culture Abuse Modern Life Is War Modern Life Is War
