Rest in Peace Brian Kurek/memorial service info

Its with great regret that we have to tell everyone that another good friend has passed away. Brian was a founding member of ‘The Crusties’ and helped write many of their songs . After ‘The Crusties’ Brian went on to play in many bands and even sing for ‘The Motherfuckers’.

Brian could be wild and crazy on stage , but in real life he was one of the nicest guys. Yeah he had his faults like all of us , but honestly the guy didn’t have a mean bone in his body. Brian loved to play and listen to music and he always enjoyed hanging out with his friends and meeting new people. He of coarse was always up to jam with anyone, anyplace at any time.

It wont be the same without Brian around ,but I’m sure he has gone to a much better place.Well miss you buddy.

To all our friends in St. Louis, we’re bringing two pretty killer bands to town.

On October 19th we’ll have Parasytic, metallic hardcore/punk from Richmond, Virginia in town. This band is on a pretty lengthy tour of over 2 months (at least!).
Check em out at www. myspace. com/parasyticrva.
Come out and support this killer band and 2 ear shattering St.
Louis bands known as Dude Nukem (http://www. myspace. com/dudenukemstl)and MCF (http://www. myspace. com/mcfband).

Another St. Louis show will be on November 9th. We’ll be bringing L.A. Cross from Brooklyn, NY to APOP Records. L.A.
Cross (http://www. myspace. com/lacrosslacross) has an old school metal sound that I personally can’t wait to hear live.
We’ll be joined by MCF(http://www. myspace. com/mcfband) and Incineration (http://www. myspace. com/incinerationmetal) on this night. This show will start at 630PM and be over by 1030PM.

We’re in the middle of booking another tour starting on Halloween and ending on November 9th. Below are the dates we have so far. We could use some help booking some of the dates that are currently available.
