And in case you foolheartedly missed it last weekend, the official Riot Fest photographers documented the Hellzapoppin’ Circus Sideshow Revue and the Ives Brothers Wall of Death motorcycle shows that were featured at Riot Fest 2017. There are some amazing shots here, so settle in with an iced tea and scroll on, my friends.

Al Jourgensen has just signed a worldwide record deal with Nuclear Blast Records to release Ministry‘s new album, AmeriKKKant, in early 2018. Here’s the band performing a new song, “Antifa,” at Riot Fest last weekend. Seems like Al’s been keeping up with current events.
Bayside recently gave a fun on-camera interview to Rolling Stone where they discuss crazy fans, Googling themselves, and so on.
Do you know the band Bleached? You should, because they’re playing with Against Me! this Saturday at Concord and they fucking rule. Here’s their new video, so you’re prepared. We live to serve you, the reader, here at RiotFest.org.
…and while we’re at it, The Dirty Nil opens the aforementioned Against Me! show, and they’re also pretty great. For fans of old school Minneapolis punks and handsome lead singers that wear star-pattern button-down shirts. “Wrestle Yü to Hüsker Dü” is a fucking jam.
Today was one of the Best days on the Coast.
Back in LA 4 the day, heading home to see my 🐱🐶 children, lyft is blasting Pennywise, playing The Greek w/ @paramore 2nite – HASHTAG BLESSED
