Friday June 4th at the Gettysburg, PA Rec Park. Agitator (Charles Darwin enthusiasts) Naptakers (maybe???) (Female fronted hardcore) Young Turks Flatworm 6:00 pm 6 bucks
Just follow the signs when you get there, it will be at a bandshell type of thing. Kind of outside, kind of not. Very small location.
Support Agitator, they are on their way to that midwest fest in Wisconsin.

This is why I never write descriptions of bands though, because I usually do a poor job.

agitator is awesome. and there really aren't that many female fronted hardcore bands. so to specify theres female vocals is kind of reasonable. also check out the band black wing they have dual male and female vocals. it's insanely good

A band members race wouldn't change the way the band sounds. It is obviously true that women have higher voices then men, thus creating a unique sound for said band if a woman is singing for them. I really don't see a problem with specifying that a band has a female vocalist, it just seems like a really petty thing to complain about.

A band members race wouldn't change the way the band sounds. It is obviously true that bettys have higher voices then men, thus creating a unique sound for said band if a woman is singing for them. I really don't see a problem with specifying that a band has a female vocalist, it just seems like a really petty thing to complain about. i'm going to go ahead and back sarah on this. the singers voice doesn't change the "sound" of the band. for a totally obnoxious example, when converge and ceremony toured together, none of the flyers read: CONVERGE - banshee fronted hardcore CEREMONY - drunk grunting dude fronted hardcore i realize that when a band is lesser known there is a perceived need to qualify their relevance to attract as many listeners as possible. however, whether the singer has a penis or vagina is irrelevant to the sound. this last point is especially relevant considering that there are plenty of male singers who have high voices (davey havok, case in point). the fact that a female's voice may or may not be high does not provide the novelty behind a statement like "female fronted hardcore". the focus of a statement like that (apologies to austin, i'm sure this isn't how you meant it) is the fact that females are a minority within this scene. now, we could go further into the possible socio-political implications of a statement of that ilk, but i won't, as i don't think that it was intended to function subversively. EDIT: for clarification purposes, I did not mean for my post to read as smug or condescending, and I mean no ill-will towards anyone. <3

Ahhh really wish stiles didn't move and we could have played this Wish you could have played as well. If you come down, I'll have those cards set aside with me for you. If not, I'll bring them to a show at the garage. Also, I sent a pm to the person that the description was made for, so hopefully that clears it up. (if this doesn't make sense, sorry, its 3:15 and I'm fiending to play Red Dead Redemption).
