For Your Viewing Pleasure

A very quick search through Youtube gave us some great finds. I've posted them here for all to enjoy.

The Killjoys



The Leather Uppers



A very special thanks to jonmoyes for generously posting a number of Thomas Trio and the Red Albino clips.





Check out his account for more! The sound and video quality are really quite good. Thanks again, jon!

Mapping Indie Rock, a request

We've had several suggestions to add specific bars and clubs to our Indie Rock Map and we're thankful for your help! If possible, please include the address of the venue so that we can plot its location on the map. We realize that many of these places might have closed, changed management or are now open under a new name so if that is the case, let us know that too.

As always, feel free to post your comments, stories and personal memories about any scene that you were a part of (or wished you were, or were glad that you weren't!) during the 90's indie rock wave. We look forward to posting more of ours and reading yours in the near future.
