The big bang for many of you won't totally come on the 4th of July. Two days after, Chicago area original Punk Rock bands will generate explosive energy on the outdoor stage of Punk Rock Tacos 50. This new edition of Local Loft will mostly focus on the ones who will provide the explosive spark. The sound will be just as decibel heavy as the bomb like blast of a mortar skyrocket or dynamite-like ear splitting M 80.
Hotlips Messiah will ignite the fuse on a fiery surprise reunion, at Cemitas Poblanas in Villa Park. The veteran space punk band from southwest suburban Lyons will have a Troublesome reunion, as their precocious lead singer Traci Trouble (yes, the same singer/bassist of the recently disbanded post punk trio, Aweful) rejoins the band she first became discovered in. Rich (Dolejis) Bastard, Hotlips Messiah's founder, guitarist and keyboardist joins me with news of Traci's one-off return.
Veteran Roseland rockers M & R Rush reveal a new eye & ear opening single and accompanying music video. Open your Hungry Eyes and Have The Time Of Your Life like it was the first time you never felt this way before, when you fell in love, feasting your eyes on your first significant other (yes, there's a big 80s movie tie in name checked indirectly in the video).
A not so young rejuvenating birthday bash for Vaudeviliens singer Jeff Julian in Kankakee, where all the metal grunting in the world couldn't rejuvenate The Kat 105.5.

We rock back to our very last local music radio showcase.
