Today would have been EarthQuaker Day! šCheck our this set from Party Of Helicopters live at Musica from last yearās EarthQuaker Day.
Ps- EQD has a sick pedalboard giveaway happening on their Instagram right now. Go take a look!
For posterity, we have uploaded the entire live set performed by The Party Of Helicopters at Musica on EarthQuaker Day IV, August 3rd, 2019. Watch it in its complete form here: https://youtu.be/8ZLGO5ZES2k
The Party Of Helicopters is a high energy multi-realmed rock n' roll outfit, established 1995 in Kent, Ohio. Years of touring, several releases, several vans, and two drummers have lead them to this point. This set contains songs from every era of the band, including a few yet-to-be released songs. Keep an eye out for new things on the horizon.

Independent music venues need your help. We were the first to close and we will be the last to open. Please take a minute to watch the video and visit saveourstages.com to take action.
Thank you from the bottom of our music loving hearts.
#SaveOurStages
The time is now to help save our beloved independent music venues.
Today, we are asking music lovers for a final push of letters to Congress -- there wonāt be another opportunity. Visit SaveOurStages.com to TAKE ACTION. The mission of the NIVA - National Independent Venue Association is to preserve and nurture the ecosystem of independent live music venues and promoters throughout the United States. Please help #SaveOurStages now.
Thank you!

The last time our doors were open was on March 7th. We donāt have a definitive answer on when the next time will be.
Independent music venues need your support now more than ever. We need the Save Our Stages Act for our industry to survive. Music venues were the first to close and will most likely be the last to open. Please support the venues you know and love by participating in and sharing the info below. We need this legislation to happen so we can make live music happen when safety allows. Thank you. ā¤ļø
This Wednesday, August 5, 2020, join Ohio Citizens for the Arts and the NIVA - National Independent Venue Association to boost support of the Save Our Stages Act.
The Save Our Stages Act is a critical piece of federal legislation that would provide $10 billion for six months of financial support to keep live performing venues afloat and preserve an economic sector shuttered since mid-March.
Please engage with as many of the following action items as possible! Your voice matters and will go a long way in helping our federal elected officials understand that we depend on them to help save Ohio's arts.
ā
ACTION #1: SEND EMAILS
Email Senator Sherrod Brown and Senator Rob Portman and ask them to support the Save Our Stages Act. You can easily send a digital letter by visiting SaveOurStages.com. Use the pre-written text and add a personal message to let them know why it's essential to save Ohio's stages!
ā
ACTION #2: TAKE TO SOCIAL MEDIA
Please push these actions via your social media accounts, preferably between noon to 5 pm. Tag #SaveOurStages and #SaveOhioStages anywhere that you can, and follow those hashtags and share/RT messages from Ohio venues. Download and use our pre-made graphics (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/7fhccsgkudpxaew/AABAWApnFI33BrCDeIGSDsyOa?dl=0) or create your own and include personal words and stories. Encourage your network to take action!
ā
ACTION #3: SHARE WITH LOCAL ARTISTS & INFLUENCERS
Contact every local artist and influencer you know and ask them to help promote this campaign. NIVA sent a letter to Congress signed by Coldplay, Lady Gaga, and Whoopi Goldberg. But, it's our local-borne talent that is affected the most. Let Senators Brown and Portman know that if they support Ohio's live performing venues, we will support them.

George Cabaniss passed away yesterday after a long battle with cancer. He was prolific with his contributions to punk history and was loved by everyone. George played guitar in Hammer Damage, Stiv Bators Band, The Bad Dudes, The Dead Boys, Village Idiots, and more. We were fortunate to host Akronās Legendary Bank Nightclub Revisited 40 years on last August and it was one hell of a night.
These photos are from that night. Thank you for all of the music George. Blessings to your family and friends.

Thatās all weāve got for now. We still believe itās not safe for us to open up yet. We have some tentative plans for intimate outdoor possibilities later this summer. Weāll let you know. Stay safe and wear a mask. We miss you!

Akron music legend!!!
George has had colon cancer since 2014 and has been through every chemo and radiation treatment available, no matter how invasive and no matter how many side effects. He has fought this cancer in every way imaginable. Now he needs to live his life on his own terms and stay at home.
George has been entertaining his whole life, with a long career in bands such as Kil Cooley, Hammer Damage, Color Me Gone, The Dead Boys, Stiv Bators Band, The Sodbusters, The Village Idiots, The Orange Ruffians , The Psyclones, Paper Crowns, Yankee, and The Bad Dudes. After a lifetime of making music and touring, all George wants now is to remain at home.
George has been annoying the neighbors for 45 years, don't let him stop now! Please think of the elders! Protect the nursing home elderly from his wild, musical antics and very nearly unfunny jokes!

Itās going to be the weirdest summer weāve had but weāre willing to give a lot of things up if it means everyone can stay healthy! ā¤ļø
Highland Square Neighborhood Association and the Highland Square PorchRokr Committee have made the very difficult decision to cancel this yearās (in-person) PorchRokr event. We understand that this is a beloved festival in our community and we do not take this decision lightly, as it is EQUALLY upsetting for us to have to make this tough call. We hope you can understand that a lot of thought and consideration went into this decision and we believe we are doing what is best to keep our community safe, healthy and moving forward.
PorchRokr is a day where we proudly serve over 15,000 people, however this year we are unsure of what crowd restrictions may look like in August and we have been unable to properly interact and engage with our community and neighbors to plan this festival because of the current pandemic.
What this means moving forward:
-We ARE currently planning on a way to celebrate our neighborhood virtually. Stay Tuned!
-Bands will need to reapply in 2021
-Bands that have already applied, please check the email youāve applied with for more information
-All vendors will be given a full refund
-Vendors will need to reapply in 2021
-Vendors that have already applied, please check your email for more information
-Sponsors, we will be getting ahold of you via email to discuss options
-We will remain in the same footprint for 2021
In the spirit of supporting and celebrating local artists and musicians, we want to provide links to resources for support:
ArtsNow: https://artsnow.org/
National Endowment for the Arts: https://www.arts.gov/covid-19-resources-for-artists-and-arts-organizations
For other resources, more aimed at local businesses: http://gaccovid19.org/

Save the date for 2021 PorchRokr on August, 21st!
If youāre downtown today, we are set up for the afternoon with free h2o, snacks, sanitizer, masks etc. Be safe Akron, we love you. ā¤ļø

Music venues were some of the first to close and may be some of the last to open back up. Bars in Ohio are re-opening tomorrow. We donāt know what the future holds, but we have hope. We canāt wait to enjoy music and drinks together again at our place. Just not yet... š§”
We miss the energy. We miss the friendships. We miss the sweaty nights. We miss needing earplugs. We miss the camaraderie of being in a crowd with each other and singing along. We miss making new friends with other drunk girls in the bathroom. We miss buying merch. We miss catching up with pals on the patio. We miss opening the garage door because itās so hot. We miss our bartenders. We miss our sound guys. We miss our barback. We miss our friendly faces at the door. We miss all of the musicians. We miss you.
We donāt know what our future looks like, but weāre working on making it the best it can be when we are eventually and safely able to open back up!

Catch Mourning [A] BLKstar at Musica on Friday January 24th with Free Black! Repost from @earthquakerdev ā¢ @mourningablkstar is a group that WILL make you stop and think. This musical composite defies genre, yet allows their influences to shine through loud and clear. Pretty damn cool that they laid down these two heavy tracks for us in an EarthQuaker Session. Afterneath adds texture to the appropriately crafted guitar sequences in "Black Water", and you truly get to hear the dimensional shimmer that can be added to a trumpet with Transmisser. DO try this at home! Space Spiral & Hummingbird make an appearance on "At the Wall", whilst Organizer liquifies octave trumpet vibe . Of course the tried-and-true Dispatch Master adds all the reverb it can muster for the trombone during both tracks. Start your day with this video, and continue it by checking out this band's records. You'll be glad you did.
