Punk Rock invades South Fl

                             


South Florida what can i say we got beaches the sun and palm trees. We have a scene ok a few different  scenes really. But this March we get two awesome things. Two old school and of course depends what you call old school. Being that 1990 is 23 years old now and some of that music is on the classic rock station..id say anything 20 years and above is in that category. Now before i go in to waves and shit of generations lets just quickly say this. Misfits,Social Distortion ,The Ramones, Sex Pistols, The Clash etc.. are part of first wave. Now punk didn't die off or anything it more or less went back underground still playing shows and kicking ass. Then the late 80s  early 90s and so on came about and we got Op Ivy/ Rancid/ Greenday / Pennywise/ Shit ton of ska/ Nofx so on so on. where am i going with this. Green Jelly (Pronounced Jello) and The Casualties are both over the 20 year mark. Esp Green Jello during the MTV music playing years. And The Casualties have been rocking the underground for over 20 years. So if you are in the mood for a hell of a stage show and some history of putting on a messy ass show The Green Jelly is gonna be a fantastic event. They opened for The Ramones in 1984 and Joey later said Green Jelly was the messiest and worst band to open for them. And besides being Grammy nominated they also did the sound track for Spiderman and Venom: Maximum Carnage on Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis based on the hit comic book Series. Now for straight Street punk The Casualties is you're cup of tea. Coming out of the NYC and kicking ass when the warped tour didn't suck ass. These Veterans of the underground are coming to Respectable Street with a passion and Respectables is ready  a local favorite hosting a lot of sweet shows in the past including Dick Dale ,The Misfits , The Toasters and Peter Murphy to name a few. So the month of March will rock and St Pattys day thrown helps to. If you're in the South Florida area in Later March here's how you can attend these shows.
