Get a Table for the Party VIP TABLE TIX AVAILABLE!

Our good friend and iconic Mpls punk rocker, Cindy Lawson is looking for donations to support a new record. Chip in!

CINDY'S MAKING A NEW RECORD! Pop punk post-meno ass-kickin' woman lookin' to put out some snarly and gnarly protest rock!

It is International Clash Day 2026- Know Your Rights on repeat.

Bandcamp Friday is today so all purchases go directly artist. Bandca doesn’t take their cut. If you already have all the Clash recordings come visit us on bandcamp or better yet, visit a local record shop for our album. Check in with Lucky Cats in Minneapolis or Barely Brothers in St. Paul on Raymond, or HiFi Hair. Comment any other local record stores you have seen it at. We also maintain our own website for tshirts, hoodies and albums for when it is not Bandcamp Friday. Stay strong MN, this is exactly what Joe Strummer trained you for.

Matching opportunity for The Hook and Ladder!

On 9/27, a group of incredible Minnesota musicians generously donated their pay to support The Hook & Ladder! A BIG THANK YOU for MILITZËR + Kars4Skids + RuDeGiRL + Doyle Turner Music

We’re turning their gift into a matching grant — that means every dollar YOU give right now will be doubled. 💥

Help us honor their generosity and keep our stage shining:

We had a great night on Saturday at The Hook and Ladder. This show was originally scheduled for Palmers Patio. Like all of you we learned of Palmers going out of business late this summer, two weeks before our scheduled date on the patio. Finding open dates can be tricky for a band of 7 people so we were so glad that Grant Eull reached out to the Hook and Ladder and they opened their doors to this show. A few days before the show we were reading about the issues the Hook was facing with the fund raiser they need to do to keep their doors open. We decided that we wanted to donate our time and proceeds back to the venue for the show on Saturday. So ticket sales went back to support the venue from that show. You can donate to the venue here: I Love The Hook | GiveMN

Special thanks to the bands who helped out the Hook last night.

Back stage at The Hook and Ladder, they always provide a great space for hospitality for the musicians that play there. Candy, snacks, waters, beer, pharmaceuticals for those who don’t take health advice from trolls (we have them too). We wanted to share some pictures back there so you have a sneak peak of the little things that make this place special. Support your local venue. See you at a show soon.

When we got to the venue and polled the other bands, they were all also on board to support. So special thanks to all the bands who helped out the Hook last night.
