FRONTSIDE GRIND
Negotiations are rumored to be in progress with Jello Biafra, and his Alternative Tentacles Records regarding the re-release of the much sought FrontSide Grind. In the meantime, the band is considering releasing the FrontSide Grind album on MP3 through an as of yet unnamed provider.

Well after hammering on the Los Olvidados website it is finally live. Still need to add more to it, so check it out.

Don’t forget about the Drunk Injuns and Los Olvidados show on June 16th check this post for more info.

On my last post I mentioned that while trying to register LosOlvidados.net the domain got registered 3 minutes before I completed the transaction. Well it became available again and I wasted no time to register it as fast as I could. It seems that some Domain Registrars make it their practice to temporarily register domains and feed off of the traffic with their Advertising pages and see if they get enough click through to generated revenue, apparently it didn’t work for them this time and they released the domain name and we snatched it. So the Los Olvidados website will be back online in a day or so probably very similar to how the Drunk Injuns site is laid out and the same technology.

Martin Smith of 510garage.com sent in these really rare vintage Drunk Injuns Skate Rock Show Flyers. I got to say I really want to get my hands on some of these for my Skate Rock Collection. You can see the photos in the Photo Gallery section.

Enjoy the new Skate Rock flyers.

Found some new older photos and they are in the Photo Gallery from a Drunk Injuns show in San Fransisco from 2006. Wow, going through some old email archives and stumbling upon some Skate Rock stuff that never made it to the old website because of how hard it was to maintain the photo gallery on there. Anyhow with the new website, it’s already proving to be a simple task to publish content. Charles Pegot submitted these Drunk Injuns photos at the end of 2006, so enjoy the new old photos and thank him if you know him.

Your eyes are not deceiving you, the Drunk Injuns website design has changed after 6 long years, It had to be done. You can read about how and why this website was created, as well find out why we redesigned it in the About section.
