NEW ARRIVALS: MAXIMUMROCKNROLL
MAXIMUMROCKNROLL #315 • August 2009
The August issue of MRR features an extensive interview with the all-time classic Midwestern hardcore band the ZERO BOYS, as well as a piece on early New York City art punkers COME ON. There’s an interview with ETACARINAE, from Barcelona, Spain, who plays heavy hardcore with a Japanese influence, plus another with INSOMNIO, from Zaragoza Spain, who plays dark, melodic hardcore with a hint of Greg Sage’s WIPERS. We’ve got Bay Area hardcore covered with two East Bay favorites: the heavy hitting SKIN LIKE IRON, and the female-fronted fastcore of PUNCH. Mississippi garage misanthropes the BLACK AND WHITES are interviewed by the band LOVER! And we’ve got a feature on the mystery bedroom sounds of the BLANK DOGS, along with Portland crust heroes RESIST. There are also London, UK, and Brest, Belarus, scene reports along with the usual columns, and, as always, the most extensive review section in punk!

OFFICIAL STATEMENT: Kheri Tillman Vice President, Dos Equis Heineken USA
Dos Equis Official Update
Although we know it’s impossible to alleviate the frustration felt by all, whether you had to wait in line for hours or were turned away after finally getting there, we know we owe you an honest explanation.
In keeping with producing the most unique events for the brand we selected the Falkenstein castle location. We thought only a limited number of people might take the long drive out there on a Wednesday night. Therefore, we heavily promoted the event to ensure we filled the venue, which unfortunately resulted in a guest list far greater than the capacity of the venue. A crowd much larger than we were prepared to handle, showed up at both the Austin bus pick up location and at the castle. Consequently, this all led to a horrible experience for hundreds of people and ruined their entire evening. And for all of this, we are truly, truly sorry.
We have spent the past two days reading each and every email, blog, and Facebook posting, and talking to some of you on the phone and we feel terrible. We are working hard to find a way to show you how sorry we are (while working within Texas alcohol beverage law which severely limits what companies can provide to consumers).
Therefore, in an effort to show how important you are to us, we are planning a special event (think of it as a Most Interesting Apology Party) for all those on the guestlist who had a bad experience and were not able to make it into the castle. Obviously planning the details and logistics of this event will take a little time, so we'll work closely with the promoters to keep you in the loop, and further details will be shared next week. If you would like to attend this event please email the promoter that invited you, and they’ll make sure you get a ticket.
If you have ever attended any of our previous events, you know we always try to give you the best experience possible, and we hope you accept our apology. If there is anything you would like to share, please email me at dosequis@heinekenusa.com.
Sincerely,
Kheri Tillman
VP, Dos Equis

Our long time friend & local Dj, Alan Wolfe
Our long time friend & Austin Dj, Alan Wolfe, I don't know how many of you know, broke his neck in two places while swimming, and is now paralyzed from the neck down. He's doing better and has a good chance of healing, but it will take a while to get to that point. There will be a number of fundraisers and events to help him raise money to get into a top facility in Austin, and to pay some of the bills he's accrued. Here is a widget, so give what you can.

JACQUES MAGAZINE
Where the good get naughty and the naughty get naked!
Jacques is America’s only new luxury erotic magazine; catering to a contemporary audience who yearns for the beautiful centerfolds of yesteryear.
Published quarterly, Jacques celebrates a return to the origins of the pulp title; edgy opinion, arousing interviews and fiery fiction blended with unparalleled pictorials illustrating the real beauty of real women.
Our mission is to provide grown-ups with an alternative to the vapid men’s magazines of today. Our content is smart - and so are our readers. Jacques features photos of genuinely gorgeous girls - never retouched, never airbrushed and shot exclusively on film.
The manufactured mannequins in other men’s magazines can’t compete. If you like looking at beautiful pictures of beautiful women (which, we imagine, includes a great number of us) go ahead, Daddy...
