Independent Journalism in Phoenix Needs You
We need to raise $15,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
This week’s print edition of Phoenix New Times features a little slice of Phoenix skate punk history, with key players in the early days of seminal band JFA discussing Phoenix, skating, and the punk scene of the early ’80s. All four original members of JFA play Hollywood Alley this Saturday (spread across three bands), celebrating 30 years since the band formed.
Also featured is Philadelphia’s Lantern, a trio of scuzzy garage rockers who are scheduled to perform at Yellow Canary Dance Hall tonight, and we’ve got short previews on Chromeo, Grieves and Budo, Washed Out, Foo Fighters, Wooden Indian, and Privileged Fridays at Oceans Seven.
