What better place to spend a beautiful summer afternoon than... a dark bar on Pico? Liquid Kitty's semi-annual Punk Rock BBQ is happening today, a working man's special featuring free hot dogs, $2 Pabst Blue Ribbon, and no cover charge despite a heady selection of musical acts. Musical entertainment runs the gamut from minimalist hardcore weirdos Chotto Ghetto, the radio-ready guitar attack of Bikos, the Bloody Brains' trip through the book of proto-punk and garage standards, the vintage power trio sound of Backbiter.

In a world where so many of our female vocalists sound like they've been sucking on helium, it's so refreshing to come across one who sounds like she's been hanging out at a truck stop all night. Yelling. I first heard the Heartless Bastards when my neighbor played them every day, all day, very loudly for about a week, and I was hooked before I even knew who they were. Then I learned that...
