Punkfest 2013 "31st Annual Punkfest"

Who's ready for some Punkfest? Ya'll remember those good old dayz at the DMZ and the Cameo Theater? Well, this is the 31st Annual Punkfest according to Tony Chainsawww. I was actually at the 1990 Punkfest at the DMZ with my friend Noemi Portillo (Nick the Chick) and Jackie. I also went to the Cameo Theater the following year to see the Nuklear Fishsticks. Then I went to the DMZ throughout the other years, a few at the Limelight before it was the Limelight or the War Room, and one at Rock Bottom Tattoo Bar. About a year ago, I went to the Ten Eleven for the 2011 Punkfest. It was a great show with Ticket for a Trainwreck, So Unloved, and many others. My friend Jesse De Luna went with me to that Punkfest. I took a few pictures with my cellphone, looking all crappy pics and all. I seriously wish we had some great pics from all the previous shows in San Anto. You know back in the day, a Punkfest was not a Punkfest without some crazy drama. I remember Carl getting in the middle of the pit and lighting a Roman candle (fireworks) and shooting it off to the stage, all phucken crazy and chit. The Skinhead wars versus the Punk Rockers was noticeable back then. I used to call the Leatherettes with studs Los Punk Rockers, or Los Punks. The Skinheads had too many clicks back then such as the American Skinheads, the Front, Section 8 Bootboys, Skinheads Against Racial Prejudice (S.H.A.R.P.s), and the umbrella group Anti-Racist Action (A.R.A.). Today, some of these skinheads are still around but formed new groups, new titles, new names, and the Punk Rockers are still the same, bad ass motherphuckers, so don't phuck with them! If you get a chance, check out the 2013 punkfest at the Ten Eleven on January 1, 2013 starting at 6pm with The Arrogant Teens, Inner City Scum, Gas mask City, True Till Death, So Unloved, The Perturbed, Oi Dollz, and the Semi Automatics. It's only $6 to get in, all ages. It's located at 1011 Avenue B, San Antonio Texas, 78215. If you get lost, please call (210)320-9080 for info. Hope to see ya'll there! Making A Scene!
