The BGN News Archive
It was a slow non-rockin' week for the BGN folks...but our friend Arthur Freedman went to PA's Lounge to see the Gash, Disipline, Syphlloids show. He reports that Gash was GREAT and "Indeed the bastard children of the Plasmatics Alive INSIDE!!!" and he's got the pics to prove it. Gash's lead singer Tibbie X is also the bass player for the current version of Reagan Youth.

Record Shop is being held at Brighton Music Hall: "Presented
by PBR and Tito’s Handmade Vodka and with special support from
Small Town Brewery, the Pop-Up Record Shop was started by Do617 to highlight
independent New England record labels who deal primarily in vinyl. With
many of the larger record stores around Boston focusing on larger exclusive
releases this time of year, local record labels tend to get shut out
of the process. We have invited some of New England’s best labels,
small record stores, and vinyl distributors to display their wares in
the center of one of Boston’s creative hubs. THIS EVENT IS FREE
WITH YOUR RSVP!"
