If the speed of the blitzkrieg on American decency is any indication, the fascists will be getting around to officially dismantling women’s rights even further any day now. Oh, what a time to be alive. At least this weekend’s Fem Fest shows that some women will not grin and bear it quietly.
Not Your Mother’s Music Scene presents a two-venue onslaught with women at the head of the charge. Coming down is an Atlanta brigade made up of hardcore bruisers Borzoi and melodic punks Catch These Hands. Coming up is a South Florida legion of Latin punks in Hijas de la Muerte, ska punks High Dose and alt-rockers Cosmic Sun.
Here at base camp, Melbourne riot grrls GirlDrama and new Orlando band Paracosm represent. Come see what this generation’s idea of ladies night looks like.
8 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 22, Uncle Lou’s and Grumpy’s Underground, $15.
