NONAGON (ex mbr of the Blue Meanies) is a 3-piece, punk rock concern that formed in 2003 and practices in the Logan Square neighborhood of Chicago. They are the proud purveyors of a loud set of short songs that have unconventional hooks and changes but still (in the one-time-cool vernacular) “rock”. The band consists of drummer Tony Aimone (who used to play in The Blue Meanies, J. Davis Trio, and Taylor), bass player Robert Gomez (formerly of der lugomen and one oneth of Martian Law), and guitar player John Hastie (who was once in Jumpknuckle). They hope to soon create a lasting audio documentation of their existence, and they like to play shows but have no idea how to dress for them.

CADEJO NEGRO - Will Walker and Jason Whitus cut the cord of the traditional Rock and Roll format and come to the world as a thunderous Drum and Bass 2 piece. Former members of Mezzanine C14 stripe down the layers of calculating complex time signatures to bring strong rythums, back beats, and thundering bass while adding the art of noise as an instrument.

German Beef Initiative
The zombie walkers and vacuum assholes abounding, the German Beef Initiative stuck to their cause even while the New England occupation of Texas seemed complete with fascist commandant marching down Congress Street, vibrator lodged in ass screaming, "Limits to freedom!

It's a few of our friends' birthdays around that time. Donna, Dave and Ronnie, Ursula's room mate. We get to set the pace by going on first that evening! I'm really excited to be playing the show!
