Unfortunately, Uncle Lou is being deported from ICE custody to Jamaica. But fortunately, the Orlando music community is still mobilizing hard for the scene pillar to raise funds for all of the expenses that have piled up in advance of this forced relocation.
This week’s first star-studded benefit concert is an all-ages matinee featuring feminist punks M.A.C.E., left-field punks Future Bartenderz, riot grrrls S.M.O.P. and rock teens The Toxic Cats (1 p.m. Saturday, June 6, Will’s Pub, $10-$15).
The stacked second show by Montgomery Drive features pop punks Dial Drive, indie rockers 0 Miles Per Hour, trad punks Debt Neglector, shoegazey post-rockers Sally Wants, Miracle and ska standouts Control This! (6 p.m. Wednesday, June 10, The Abbey, $20).
