GRASS VALLEY WE LOVE YOU
Huge shout out to everyone who came out last Saturday for the first annual Grass Valley Punk Rock Flea Market! This was seriously one of the most special events we’ve ever been part of. The whole thing went down inside the Grass Valley Arts
& Cultural Center — a monastery over 180 years old that has been hosting shows from the 80s all the way to now. We found out the Dead Kennedys played there, and even crazier, Mötley Crüe once played there and blew out one of the stained glass windows…
Now this beautiful historic space is home to an incredible rose garden, art spaces, and a community that is keeping creativity and punk alive. Biggest shout out to Melody for bringing us out, organizing such an amazing event .pdx , all the vendors, food vendors, volunteers, and every single person who came out to shop, eat, hang, and MOSH. You all made this unforgettable.
And BEST PIT goes to every one of you who joined the wall of death for us — that was Lost Puppy Forever’s FIRST wall of death ever, and Grass Valley made it happen! Absolute chaos in the best way possible.
Massive shout out to Sammy and Kenny from The Owl Cave for holding down the sound, and thank you to Jack Dog for being our road dog. We truly appreciate all the time, energy, and heart everybody put into this event.
Shout Out all the bands: Checked Out & Melody for helping with the drum back line. Reeking Slug, Slutzville.
It was amazing meeting new friends and reconnecting & all the pets thanks Chandra for drawing us! . Special shout out to Ron from Ron’s Real Records and KVMR & KDVS for the support and conversation and playing our new CD.
Thank you to everyone sharing videos and photos from the night. Special Thanks to Punk- A- Pet they will be at Mosswood Meltdown & Marcy & friends from Food Not Bombs - GV thanks for feeding us!
We’ll definitely be back soon.
