Ok tulis dalam bahasa pula.

Pada gig Conquest for Death (CFD) pada Jumaat ini juga akan di buka satu ‘perpustakaan bergerak’ alternatif (nama sementara: Bibliopunk), di mana pengunjung berpeluang untuk membaca/menatap/membau/mengintip koleksi zine yang saya ada.  Antara koleksi ‘zine yang ada (yang masih belum hilang/dibakar/dibuat harta) adalah: beberapa issue

Slug & Lettuce,

Profane Existence,

HeartattacK,

AVOW,

Maximum Rock n’ Roll,

Beyond the Barbed Wire,

Redrebel zine,

Hantam Stagnasi,

Innerview.

dan lain lain.

Turut dipamerkan beberapa buku-buku berkenaan dengan kultur DIY Hardcore Punk, aktivisma, Anarkisma, Crimethinc dan banyak lagi!  Beberapa ‘zine yang akan dipamerkan turut boleh dimiliki dengan harga yang minima.

Konsep ini bukanlah sesuatu yang original daripada saya.  Pernah dahulu saya serta sekumpulan rakan-rakan pernah berbincang untuk membuat projek yang serupa, agar membawa bahan bacaan alternatif untuk bacaan orang ramai tetapi projek tersebut tidak terrealisasi.  Pameran di gig CFD adalah eksperimental, untuk melihat reaksi semua.  Datanglah dengan minda terbuka.

Cheerios!

The details is per the flyer below:

The usual suspects in the Kuching scene (darn we need more new bands here bros and sis) are all in the line up:

Restart
Kurasakuasa
Escape the Plainview

United Kids of Oi!
Bakteria
Niang
Rob Blitz

With the highlight of the gig, Conquest for Death.

Personally I have seen most of the bands perform, I can’t wait to check out Bakteria, Niang and Rob Blitz. Limited merchandises would be on sale that day- I’ve got a few very good ‘zines from Indonesia and a few records, old and new. There are some independent movies on sale too. Distro listing soon! (I hope). So bring your cash money! Kuching seldom has such DIY Punk Hardcore event happening at her shore, make sure you don’t miss it! See you there!
