Mothers and sisters

As the New Year began I hobbled over to the House of Targ to check out some ferocious punk action from Montreal powerhouse NOBRO. Combos Custodians, Magic Mommy and Hang Nail stepped up to provide some extra kick to the night. Montrealers Hang Nail were up first, starting with some shouty action with Alex and Hannah!
