Punks and Rogues

One of the signs on the construction fence in Like Share Comment jumped out at me.

It was this:

Punks and Rogues Presents sign.

What's special about this sign is that, well, it exists! East Village punk rock shows never advertise. You either have to know someone involved, or pass by accidentally when they're playing. And when they do, it's usually only around the stage area!

Fun Fact: "No Future" (just above the word Brooklyn, in the sign) is from a song called God Save The Queen, by a punk rock band called The Sex Pistols. They were very popular in the East Village, back in the bad old days.

Next year will be the 40th anniversary of "No Future"! Still going strong!
