The Boardlords are bringing a bus of Connecticut’s most crazed punk rock fans to meld with the East Village’s most depraved citizens. This a free show. There will be a surprise performance after the Boardlords have had their way with the stage.

The Boardlords have been recording and performing for the past 8 years up and down the East and West Coast, at such venues as 2002 Summer X-Games in Philadelphia, Skatopia in Ohio, The U.S. Open of Snowboarding at Stratton, VT, and a brief tour of Northern and Southern California and Heavenly, Nevada as well. We have played at both the Winter X-Games back when it was at Mt. Snow in VT, and the summer , we also have played locally at CBGB’s, The Continental, Arlene’s Grocery and Trash Bar, as well as at The Westchester County Roller Girls season opener for 2008.

The Boardlords have performed with such acts as: Agent Orange, DI, McRAD, Big World, Gang Green, 76% Uncertain, Killing Time, Skatanic Rednecks, Valient Thor, and Sub-Zero to Name a Few.

Their 3 full length albums titled: “The Boardlords” “Ride Again” and “Wax Museum” have been licensed to MTV2 “HeadBanger’s Ball” and “Rob & Big” as well as Fusion TV.

ANYWAY– they have a new video every month that they debut at the show, and then they put it on youtube a few days later. Well it’s up on youtube!! Check it out if you’re into funny. This one features Katherine Heller as John’s crush… hilarious!

If you’re into this video check them out at their next show… keep up with them on their facebook group…. John also writes awesome political columns for True/Slant dot com so check those out too. (Can you tell I’m a fan?)
