Review: Scary Kids Scaring Kids - Self Titled

The release of SKSK third album was almost unnoticed to me until i seen it in the target. They have moved a long way from the After Dark EP of being a deep dark sound.

Review: New Maps Of Hell

Bad Religion's new record New Maps Of Hell is amazing. The songs have so much energy && the shows to promote the new record where some of the best ive ever been to.

Review: Shorebirds - S/T 7"

With a lineup featuring ex-members of Jawbreaker and Latterman, it would have taken a lot for me not to like this record. Fortunately, that isn't the case.

Club Laga

3609 Frobes Avenue
Pittsburgh, PA 15213
See map: Google Maps
Capacity: 1000
Established:
Closed: 2004
Reason Closed: The owner decided he was losing too much money at Club Laga due to a larger amount of All Ages shows and as a result, wasn't making money on the bar. In the end the venue was closed and converted into apartments


Located upstairs from the more recently closed Upstage, Club Laga in the late 90's and early 00's was a staple for people to come and see larger named bands ranging styles from punk rock, ska, indie rock, metal, rap, r&b, dance and many other genres.
While not necessarily a great place for a small, lesser known band to book & promote a show, many bands got their start here while opening for bigger bands. Many of us have attended dozens of shows here over it's years and despite a turbulent past with one of it's primary promoters, Club Laga holds a solid spot in many of our hearts.
