October seems like a light month for ska so far, doesn’t it? Joker’s Republic and what else?

Forgot to share it here yesterday. Sorry! Here’s the September Ska, Punk, and Other Junk column.

The floodgates finally broke regarding new music releases because September was a tough Ska, Punk, and Other Junk column to narrow down.

Glad to see I’m not the only person who thinks Frank Turner bringing his Lost Evenings Festival to Dallas is extremely tone deaf.

September column comes out tomorrow. It’s mostly punk this month.

Interview with Black Guy Fawkes tomorrow on @beardedgmusic.bsky.social 👀👀

Bright Eyes released a ska song. It wasn’t to my taste, but I’m sure some folks will enjoy it.

I feel bad for Teddybears. Their “Punkrocker” song is everywhere right now because of Superman, but everyone thinks it’s an Iggy Pop song.

Hey! It’s the last Monday of the month. That means my column is live. Read it!

May column comes out tomorrow. Better late than never y’all. Sorry!

Seeing all the videos from punk rock bowling with The Aggrolites and Lynval Golding together make me so jealous. Would love for them to tour the country with it next!

May column is going to be delayed. My writing days have been taken up with going to shows, so I guess that’s a good reason. 😂😂😂

Messed around and made a TikTok for this account. Go follow it if you want.
