A Night at Punk Rock Social in Long Beach

Now in its fourth year, Punk Rock Social is a monthly event at Alex's Bar in Long Beach. This past weekend, they held the CD release for the Cute Lepers.

LAist Featured Photos contributor Michael Zampelli checked it out, took these wonderful photos and came back with this to say. "The show openers, Prima Donna, were poser-pop and even covered a Beatles song. The joke band of the night was Black Fag, who did a gay send-up of nearly every classic Black Flag song. The front of the stage was more like a Jazzercise class than a mosh pit. The ace in the hole was Sun Trash, whose non-pretentious delivery and expert showmanship was in stark contrast to the other three groups."

Everyone must catch Black Fag at least once.

Although Sun Trash wasn't the headliner they were the hit of the night in my opinion. Great job capturing the mood of the evening Rinkrat.

Black Fag was hysterical.

I called the Sword of Fatima banjo player sighting in Sun Trash. Rinkrat got a picture of Swords of Fatima when they played at a recent Derby Dolls bout.

That's Buko Pan Guerra all right! One Sword on her own, even. The Twopergroup will soldier on despite this wicked moonlighting! www.myspace.com/swordsoffatima
