" THE REJECTED " from Brownsville Texas
























































FRIDAY 8/15 : JOE'S BAR AND GRILL (LOCATED ON CENTRAL BLVD) INVITED LOCAL LEGENDARY HARDCORE PUNK ROCK BAND "THE REJECTED" TO PLAY A SHOW WHICH ALSO INCLUDED A NEW UP AND COMING SKATE PUNK BAND "HAD ABOUT ENOUGH" AND "BACK TO THE RIVERDALES'.
"THE REJECTED " MEMBERS INCLUDE ( JOHNNY:VOCALS, ALLEN:DRUMS, RONNIE:GUITAR, JOE:GUITAR, VALDO:BASS) A BAND STARTED IN THE EARLY 90'S AND MEMBERS THAT HAVE DESCENDED FROM MENTAL DISORDER AND CERO BRAINS WHICH DATE BACK TO THE MID 80'S. "THE REJECTED" PLAY FAST, GRIND AND DISTORTED, ORIGINAL MUSIC WITH SONG TITLES "IF I HAD MY WAY WITH YOU" AND "WHITE TRASH". "THERE IS NOTHING BUT POSITIVE ENERGY WHEN THESE GUYS PLAY, ITS ABOUT ENJOYING THE MOMENT AND FEELING ALIVE " NOTED BAND MANAGER WILLIAM TORRES.
THE PUNK SCENE HAD SLOWED DOWN THIS YEAR DUE TO THE CLOSING VENUE "CHAPAS BAR" (LOCATED ON 14TH ST.) A MUSIC BAR THAT IN 2007 HOSTED A CONCERT BY MARKY RAMONES DRUMMER OF THE "RAMONES " INDUCTEE ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME BAND. GALERIA 409 STEPPED IN THIS YEAR HOSTING A BENEFIT CONCERT WHICH INCLUDED "THE REJECTED" IN THE LINE UP. GALERIA 409 THEN AFTER PUBLICLY ANNOUNCED IT WOULD HOST NO MORE PUNK SHOWS.
HOWEVER IT SEEMS NOW JOES BAR AND GRILL HAS STEPPED IN TO FILL THE MUCH NEEDED VENUE. THIS SHOW DEFINITELY PROVES THAT THE LOCAL SCENE WILL NEVER DIE AWAY, "PUNKS NOT DEAD" AND SHOWS NO SIGNS OF MERCY.
