Hub City Hardcore Fest Cancelled Today


To all of you who planned to attend this weekend's 3-day HCHC fest, there has been a change in plans.

Unfortunately, local authorities took it upon themselves to contact the landlords of all planned venues. Their reasons for order the shows cancellations were somewhere between fire codes and threats of noise violations.

Therefore, today's show is canceled. Psyched to Die, The Measure (SA), Tinnitus, Static Radio NJ, staring problem and Antietem were scheduled to perform.

There are many people scrambling to make this work right now but hopefully the scheduled bands will still get to play somewhere. Saturday's show has been moved to the Court Tavern.

Most importantly, these shows were an honest effort to raise money to benefit a great friend and local legend to our music scene.

Taken from Chunksaah Records site:

Rich Cunningham formed Happy Days Records in 1995, releasing debut records by Hot Water Music and Ink & Dagger, as well as titles by Endeavor, Times Up, and Human Remains. In 2000 he formed New Labor, an alternative model of worker organization that combines new and existing strategies to improve working conditions and provide a voice for low-wage, young, immigrant workers in central New Jersey. In 2005 Rich was diagnosed with cancer and recently his battle has taken a turn for the worse.


Please listen up for other changes for the weekend plans and come check out the Court Tavern show on Saturday.
