Soundwaves on Strike


I just uploaded these pictures from Friday night. Me and my cousin Emily went to go see my other cousin Max's band, Soundwaves on Strike, play at this bar called The Green Turtle. It was by far the coolest place I have ever been to. I'm really upset right now because my camera died right before we got there so I only have pictures of us after we got home. But let me just explain how outrageously cool this place was. 

In the front there is this Chinese restaurant and then you walk around the back to this gated dirt area where all the bands are waiting to play. Then when you walk inside the stage is so ridiculously small it's insane. There was a bar but no one was working everyone was just sitting on it and the standing room was about the size of my own room. About 6 or 7 bands played and they are all about 17 or 18 years old. More than half of the bands sucked beyond repair but it was just fun to see all the people who came to watch because they were all dressed super punk rock and edgy but so gorgeous at the same time. 

Here's a few pictures of me and my cousin afterwards.





I'm not sure how I forgot to mention this but I dyed my hair pink. Unless you're blind, you probably already knew that from the pictures above. I got like 5 streaks or something like that. Semi-permanent. Don't worry.

  1. Haha, sorry you don't know me, but very interesting blog post. I'm guessing this was the first concert you've been to, lol. My name's Andrew, I'm the rhythm guitarist/vocalist in the band and I know Max. Haha, it's always fun to see and hear about our shows from different people's perspective. Thank you again, this post randomly made my day, lol. If you're interested, our next show is this coming Sunday 7/26. Talk to Max if you need tickets. Anyway, ttul.
