do you stay awake at night concerned that punk rock has horribly fallen of the face of the planet? when the kids these days in Las Vegas are concerned about who will be stripping when they're 18, or bumping lines at the Hard Rock Casino and not wondering about the global concerns of today... welcome to my world in lost vague-ass.
so i get on site at "The Farm" and i get this nostalgic feeling of high school. it's an all ages show which means no alcohol. i see kids and immediately know their parents would not approve of this Canadian destruction about to go down. when i say destruction about to go down... if you've never seen a Propagandhi show... go see one before you die. these guys play to level the goddamn place! i remember when i was a high school youngin and knew the ramifications that were waiting when i got home just a little bit too late... and then my parents smelling the mosh pit scent as i walked in the house proclaiming i had just heard the voice of fucking Canadian gods!
from the opening album title track of, "Supporting Caste" to their last jam, "Purina Hall of Fame", there is hope for punk rock's future. The Farm's all ages entry allows for the youth to again be revitalised with punk rock. not for the likes of the those who are looking for the top 40's punk music, or whatever it's called these days. this venue is for the kids who fuck, sleep, eat and shit punk rock. like the days of me hoping and praying to be able to see Fugazi or Bad Brains at the local Y's in L.A. and Santa Cruz, The Farm gives breath to the kiddies to: know, see, hear and feel the wealth of punk rock that we, as humans of all ages, so desperately need. thank you, The Farm.
