See Great Metal Bands At Shaun Luu Horror Fest
If you're in the Syracuse, NY area, there is a really awesome fest to go to this weekend. This fest combines two great things: b-movies and metal/hxc/punk music.
The Shaun Luu Horror Fest is an annual music/movie festival held in memory of Shaun Luu, who died in 2005 from brain cancer. From the fest site:
"Shaun was an amazing guy who was a big part of the Syracuse, NY hardcore/metal community. He sang for Word As A Virus and was a constant face in the crowd at pretty much every kind of show around here. He meant a lot to a lot of people and the fest is our way of remembering him and giving something back.
All the money made gets donated in Shaun's name to fight cancer. The first few years of the festival the money was donated to the American Cancer Society. Last year we decided that the money should stay local so we set up a few funds at University Hospital/Golisano Childrens Hospital in Shaun's name. One of the funds is to support brain cancer treatment and research at University Hospital, one fund is to get some new games and things for the activity room on the cancer ward in the children's hospital (the current activity room is run down and sparse...there are kids there that spend months stuck in the hospital, sick, and depressed as hell...it'd be nice to get some better things in there for them. Keeping peoples spirits up can make all the difference in fighting a disease), and the last fund is to raise money to build a new nurses station in the new children's hospital that will be marked in memory of Shaun."
So you can see eight movies for $20 on Saturday, then for $10 you can see twelve great bands, and at the same time help give some hope to cancer-stricken youth. You'll see the itinerary and all information after the jump.

Transistor Transistor Drops Off Tour
Transistor Transistor has dropped off their tour with The_Network. Here's a statement from the band:
"Yesterday on the way to our first show of tour in NYC at the Knitting Factory, Nat asked the all important question 'Is this where my appendix is?' He'd been having some stomach pains lately, so after a brief debate we decided to stop in an emergency room in bum fuck Connecticut. Long story short, Nat got checked out, juiced up on pain medication, and eventually went under the knife. His appendix was succesfully removed and he is currently recovering.
"So the good news is that Nat is ok. The bad news is that surgery doesn't allow a man to rock out on stage and sleep on dirty floors as is neccessary for a tour, so we have to cancel all the shows for this current tour. This is a major bummer, we were really looking forward to playing Dude Fest and all the other shows, but these are the cards we were dealt.
"Thanks to everyone who helped book a show. If we haven't been able to contact you directly yet, we're sorry but circumstances haven't allowed us to track down everybody's info. Please get in touch if you need to pass on any info. The Network is still going to be on tour, so go see them, and promoters please get in touch with them if them if you need to make adjustments to the show.
"We're going to be in the hole on a shitload of t-shirts we had printed for tour, and some posters, so if you're into it, please feel free to go to Level-Plane and Merch Now and look for leftover/unsold tour items sometime in the future. Thanks for everyone's support."

"With Scott's final show being last week on Friday the 13th, we are pleased to announce we have not only one new member but two. The vocal duties will now be handled by Mikey Bones and bass duties by (Wolf Grenade) aka Bennett.
"We have been practicing with this new lineup for close to a month now and things are shaping up well beyond all expections. Writing for the next record has already started. And with Mike and Bennett in the new line up things can be expected to be FAST on the new stuff. We're heading out for two months come August 3rd where we'll be spanning the entire U.S. Then we come home for October where we will be doing select weekends before we leave again in November with some yet to be announced headliners.
"This is a new leaf we are turning with a new solid line-up, and while our original singer Scott will be missed we are confident that the new stuff will be just as good if not better with the new line-up. If not better then at least faster!"
