Free post-punk at the Knockout with some great local bands. Airfix Kits sounds like GANG OF FOUR having a party with THE MINUTEMEN, and they even have an English-accent-sounding singer for authenticity’s sake. Also, they’re one of Allan’s favorite SF bands (probably because they also have an Allan in the band).
Rank/Xerox is one of those bands that you can legitimately describe as “early JOY DIVISION” without getting laughed out of the room. And of course La Corde is opening everything up with their WIPER-influenced raw sound.
The FREE SHOW starts at 9pm. Tell the rain to fuck off and come out!
