No quarter

September has flown by, and here we are already at the last Friday of the month, which nine times of of 10 means a trip to the House of Targ for some pinball and punk. This was an all-homegrown edition at the HoT, with some streetpunks and rcokers sharing the bill. I'm going to throw up a bunch of photos this time because at the rate I'm going through my backlog it would be 2015 before I blog the rest ...

Regret dub themselves "Speed Freaks on Acid" and play an appropriately thrashy punk. Here's frontman Eric and guitarist Mich!

Now, on to Asile and Average Times ....
Asile started things off with the intro to AC/DC's Hell's Bells. Last time I saw Asile - at the Dominion Tavern with Pregnancy Squares and Peace in November 2012 - they were a quartet. For this show they were down to a trio.

And so on! (Incidentally, you can thank the House of Targ's new lighting for the occasional bokeh in these snaps.)
