Crib Notes

Before they were Black Lips they were the Renegades, and they revert to their early former hooligan selves very rarely these days. Tonight is one such occasion as the Renegades return to play a benefit show at the Drunken Unicorn to raise money to cover the funeral expenses for the subject of CL’s cover story this week, Bobby Ubangi.

Baby Dinosaur Vs. Extinction, Pizza Party, and Trip Hop Cowboy are also performing. All proceeds are being donated to the funeral fund.

Anyone interested in donating to the Bobby Ubangi Funeral Fund can do so via send Paypal.

Link disabled.

Note: Funeral donations are no longer being accepted. Thank you to everyone who has contributed.

Cost for the show is $5 for 21+, $7 for under 21. Doors open at 9 p.m. and the show starts promptly at 9:15 p.m. The Drunken Unicorn, 736 Ponce de Leon Place.

FULL DISCLOSURE: Since I have Power of Attorney responsibilities I am using my personal Paypal account to transfer all of funds received directly to cover the costs of funeral expenses.

To raise funds to cover Bobby Ubangi’s medical bills and living expenses that are building up as a result of cancer treatment, a handful of local and fun-loving punk bands are performing tonight at the Clermont Lounge. Baby Dinosaur vs. Extinction, Coffin Bound, the Coathangers, and Mourdella are all on the bill. The show doubles as Jessica Juggz’ birthday bash, so one can expect that it’s going to be pretty wild.
