Naked Aggression Banned from The Vault 350!
Current mood: angry
Category: Banned from the Roxy (The Vault!) Music
So we played to a packed house, had 2 big circle pits going & played a really tight set, but the manager of the club hated us from the get go. She was giving all of the opening bands a lot of shit & yelling at us all night, so after we played, I went to get some food down the street to get away from her elitist crap. While I was gone, my drummer & guitarist, along with the opening band, The Unwanted, decided to rebel against the managers authority complex & re-arranged the furniture in the dressing room by placing every object ( i.e.; couch, tables, chairs, etc.) perfectly upside-down. Since she's so uptight, the manger came by the room to snoop & flipped out, screaming, called security & kicked them out. Then she went running to our record label & lied to try to get us "in trouble" by claiming we trashed the dressing room by punching holes in the walls & breaking all of the furniture. Next, she bitched out my unaware husband about it all, screaming at him, even though he's not even in the band & wasn't anywhere near the room when it all happened. By the time I got back, my roadie & bass player had cleaned up, put all of the furniture upright again, and apologized to her & the label. There were no holes in any walls & nothing was broken, I couldn't even tell that anything had been moved around! So even though they cleaned the room & apologized to her about the prank, she preceded to lecture me by demanding that I kick out my guitar player & dissed me by saying, "Your band really made you look like an asshole!" Finally, she had the nerve to refuse to pay us claiming that my guitarist had been "disrespectful" & told us we were banned from ever playing The Vault again! So even though nothing was broken, she completely ripped us off! She totally over reacted & treated us like crap. I can't believe how uptight this lady was... she was a total elitist, control freak. So now we're banned from The Vault... like we even care! Fuck that elitist bullshit night club manager. She don't even know what the fuck punk rock is!

NA distributes Profane Existence on tour!
Category: News and Politics
Profane Existence Magazine - Making Punk a Threat Again! https://www.profaneexistence.com/
The Profane Existence Collective was formed in 1989 by a small group of young people with the common goal of contributing to build a stronger and more politically active punk rock movement. As a collective, we are a small group of individuals that have joined together our ideas and abilities to work on numerous projects as part of a single entity, in an overall struggle against tyranny and oppression. Everyone likes to pigeonhole and this is how we prefer to look at ourselves: Our politics are anti-state and anti-oppression (anarchist if you prefer) and our community is from within the DIY ("Do It Yourself") punk rock movement.

British Invasion 2k6 – The Roadie's Account
What the media is calling a "punk show riot" unfolded in a series of increasingly bad ideas. I'm not assigning blame to any particular party; what I'm doing is more like a large wagging finger at everybody involved.
First off, now this has nothing to do with the riots, but if you want a beer, do not say "Hey bitch, give me a fucking beer," instead say, "Could I have a beer please?" I said that had nothing to do with the riots, but I lied. It has everything to do with the riots. It's impolite and inconsiderate behavior that caused this riot. Let's look at this step by step as it escalated.
First, security didn't recognize the potential violence that can erupt when you let in a handful of nazi skinheads to a punk rock show. I've never understood why nazi skinheads cling to punk rock like a gaggle of tard-barnacles, but, alas, they do. Security was uneducated in the social interactivity of punk rock's varied sub-subcultures, and it resulted in violence. Nazi skins shouldn't go to punk shows, but, this is a "free" country and they have the right to go if they want. These particular nazi skins wanted to provoke and aggravate the general anti-nazi and anti-racist sentiments of the punks. They did their "heil Hitler" salutes, and engaged in tough guy theatrics and general taunting. In other words, they behaved like inconsiderate douche bags, showing no concern for any one else's feelings. They goaded simply to goad. That completes stupidity levels one and two. Stupidity level number three went to a new height.
One of the punks pulled a knife on one of the nazi skins and stabbed him. Then other punks started chasing and beating the other nazis. Incidents between the nazi skins and the punks had been escalating all evening, but when the band on stage ripped into a song called "Kill the Nazis," well, that's when the knife came out and ratcheted up the stupidity. Once again, why do nazi skinheads want to go to a punk show? On a coincidental side note, I believe there was a song also called, "Kill the Nazis," that topped England's charts throughout the early forties. It was a sentiment everyone could get behind.
The big stupid move came when the cops arrived. Let me explain the set up. There were two stages. One stage was outdoors where concessions such as pop, beer and tacos were sold. There were five to six double doors that opened into the side of what looked like a former airplane hangar. Inside this hangar was the main stage. Kids were outside and in; going by the media's numbers: when the cops arrived there were around two hundred to two hundred and fifty outside, leaving 1,250 inside (although I'd say more like 2,000 inside). Bands played on the two stages simultaneously. Outside is where the nazi trouble occurred. When the cops showed up in riot gear, some kids panicked and threw bottles at the cops, or so the media reports say. I don't know where they got any bottles since all beer and soda was from a tap and served in Styrofoam cups.
The first wave of cops retreated and waited for back up, which came in large numbers. They herded the kids into the hangar by shooting into the crowd with bean bags and rubber bullets. They forced the small crowd inside, and once they had all the kids confined they began to launch the canisters of tear gas. Kids screamed and stampeded for the doors on the opposite side of the hangar. The kids inside had no idea this was coming. Suddenly: their eyes, noses and throats are burning. Eyes running with tears, snot dangling from noses, drooling. There were kids in attendance as young as and younger than 13/14 years old. They're middle-schoolers, and they're getting gassed without warning by cops in full riot gear. Kids were falling over, trampling each other, dropping to their knees and vomiting. They slid through the puke, running for safety, all cramming their way through two standard sized doors.
The cops then proceeded to herd kids away from the show grounds. After two hours had passed we all got out of there, having secured all the t-shirts and CDs (someone did try to run off with Naked Aggression merch in the chaos, but they didn't get far).
We took the truck through a Del Taco drive through. From the pick-up window we could see the place was filled with concert-going refugees. They were calmly sitting and eating. And again, the cops arrived. They shut down the restaurant, drove the kids out at gun point and ordered all cars away from the area. Pigs lined up in the street with their helmets on, shields down and shot guns held across their chests. They marched the kids away down the sidewalk, driving them on like cattle, further away into the night.
There were reports of looting from a near by home entertainment warehouse. Apparently some some plasma screen televisions were run off with, while others were smashed (Smash Your TV!). I don't know if a dozen kids stealing some televisions after the pigs have already opened fire qualifies as a riot, but I guess, as always, that is for the media to decide.
Obviously, there's more to the rioting than this (thrashed cop cars, broken storefront windows and flaming trash cans for starts), but this is what I saw and know from immediate sources. There are several videos up over at YouTube now; a simple search of riot and 2k6 ought to bring up most of the videos. I also have a word about posting videos of illegal activity on YouTube: if we must post videos of this kind, please, let's try not to post any that will help cops identify people. Jack in the Box doesn't need financial recompense from anybody no matter what they did to their stinking restaurant.
