Do You Have A Scene?
Hey guys! Wherever you're from. Tell me if you guys have a punk or ska scene. We had a pretty good firehall here in Hanover but it got shut down because of stupid kids breaking stuff and causing trouble. We had some pretty awesome bands play though. Roger Merit and the Disasters, River City Rebels, Plan A Project, Toxic Narcodic, and many more. Anyhow I was wondering what the scene in other small towns around the world are like, and what bands have played there.

We have a good little underground scene in Birmingham again now, sort of almost a revival of the old metal and rock scene that spawned some of the biggest acts in the world back in the '60's. Sabbath, Zeppelin, Traffic, Clapton and pretty much anyone else in the British scene back then played Birmingham's clubs and pubs.
Right now there's a number of cool indie bands playing as well, hopefully some of them will get decent labels and start getting their music out there. |
Where I'm from there are a lot of metal/metalcore and punk/hardcore bands.

Chicago is pretty notorious for its hip-hop/rap, but we've got a very distinct rock underground. Those of you who come from the area or are familiar with Kill Hannah, you know that Kill Hannah and their "genre" set the stage, so to speak, for many aspiring artists.

there is an old movie theater that was converted into a punk/hardcore venue here in san diego. its cool. the vandals are playing in a few days. we have a nice big number of local punk and hardcore bands. they play there all the time.

I am part of a scene growing bigger from this small area, which is in western pennsylvania, east of pittsburgh, towards the outskirts leading towards pittsburgh, the scene brings in a variety of bands....all awesome in their discripitve ways.. From hardcore, to ska, to punk, to indie, to piano, it all rocks. My favs that have came through: Whatever it takes(Chrs#2 of Anit flag-side project), The A.K.A's(NY), Spitalfield(CA), Amanda Rogers(Immigrant Sun records),Too Short Notice(NJ)... and so on. Im proud of the scene, and what it has brought to so many people. I met my boyfriend and some of my best friends this way.
River City Rebels have come here as well. The beltones, please tell me you've seen the beltones!? P.S. Props to the one who started this post! |
Never saw the Beltones, Sorry. We did have alot of bands that fell through here though also. Murphys Law,and DOA were supposed to play, but disaster struck them and they couldnt make it. Keep your eyes open for a Horror Punk band called From The Grave. I'm sure they'll play around Pittsburgh sometime. Its my buddy Phills band. They've gotten pretty big for a small town band. Thanks for the Props!

If you look at the band Reel Camels Dont Smoke and look at their Bass player AKA me and you will see his name is Fuzz! Back off buddy, its just a name! |
we've got a decent punk/hardcore scene here, there's a lot of shows that give local bands a chance to play, mainly in community centers, that sort of thing. the university has a lot of bands come through, but they're mainly mainstream, so not really incorporated with the underground scene.

we have an awsome scene in melbourne, but the best part is the funk/experimental/hardcore scene. all these crazy bands that nobody really knows. its not the biggest scene, but i guess thats a good thing in a way. theres the huge punk scene in melbourne, but this is more...extreme? perhaps not the best word. anywho tommorow night theres a party about an hour's drive away. its a destruction party. these guys from a band got evicted so they've got their band, she spits macabre, a new zealand band called die die die and oanother band i cant recall playing. should be awsome. the good thing about this scene is that its all over the city/suburbs. i see people i met on one side of the bay over on the other side, or out in the country. so, melbournes going well with its scenes.

I live in herkimer (because I am going to college there) They have no scene. The place is dead. I used to live in syracuse and there are shows almost every week.
|
DC has a vibrant scene and there are shows all the time. A great local hardcore scene too.
|
:thumb: I am moving to Australia ASAP.
|
NYC....HARDCORE
mad scene yo! |
i live an hour from orlando fl...and they got a good scene
|
Here in Phoenix, Ive seen the scene start to blow up with several venues booking alot of awesome bands. Then it kinda died..The clubs closed, and shows stopped coming. Now it seems to be picking up again, there are a few new clubs opened up that books good bands. Sometimes you got to drive a little to get to see the bands but between Tuscon, Tempe, Mesa and Phoenix, its not to shabby. Danzig got knocked out (cant stop giggling when I say that) in Tuba City not to long ago. The excitement never ends!
|
scene diying fast some good bands come here and there full of hard core weinerpunks that dont know what a circle pit is they all just stand there and wine when ppl mosh then when ppl start to jump aroun every one backs away

i live in the midwest.. we get a good mix of redneck and gangsta (think bubba sparxx). No "scene" here.
|

My back-neighbors love to jam but I dunno what's their bands name though nor the scene thingy and their actually quite good. My cat Mia lives with 'em now, haha. :D
