Hey hey comrades, I'm dragging Brendan Kelly onto /punk to talk about his shows with Laura Jane Grace and then some more shows with Mad Caddies. Starts in a few days! He's calling it the SUMMER OF BEEX and has the tacky shirt designs to prove it. Yes, Brendan is the guy from The Lawrence Arms, Slapstick, The Falcon, etc., but let's stay on topic! These are solo acoustic sets where he plays everything from all his projects. It's his first time ever in Maine! EXCITING. Here's the dates:

8/22 - Lancaster, PA @ Ask a punk!
8/22 - Garwood, NJ @ Crossroads
8/23 - Stroudsburg, PA @ The Goat
8/24 - OFF

We just released a split called the Nietzsche EP on a gatefold 7". It's six songs from two rad Midwest punk bands. Very different style of bands, but thematically they both really vibe, if you ask me. I feel like this is reminiscent of how Lookout documented some of the diverse bands that came through Gilman.

Maybe some of you already know of these two bands, but check it out if not: https://orcd.co/NietzscheEP
