Well this is pretty awesome. On Saturday, July 11 we’ll be playing at Quenchers with veteran Chicago shredders Bible of the Devil. They are bad ass (definitely check out their newest record Freedom Metal if you haven’t already), so this is going to be a real treat. You’re going to want to come out and feel this.

Also on the bill is Six Six Crush out of Minneapolis. It’ll be a great show, plus Quenchers has an excellent (and huge) beer list.

Quenchers is at the corner of Fullerton and Western. I would imagine things will get going around 10.

We’re playing the Mutiny on Friday, June 12. This by itself would be a very positive thing: the Mutiny has cheap beer and never charges a cover. Compounding this good news, however, is the fact that the Indiana-based rock and roll juggernaut known as State will be joining us. They are very, very good and have a fantastic live show. If you’ve been considering coming to an Hay Perro show for a while and are trying to settle on the best one, I’ll save you the trouble and let you know that this is the one to come to.

Yarn are also on the bill. They are quite wonderful as well, but since they’re from Chicago, you’ve probably already seen them several times and know that.

The Mutiny is at 2428 N. Western and the show starts around 10:00. We’ll probably play last, but do not lollygag. You owe it to yourself to see the other bands.

Hey folks.

We had an awesome weekend in Indiana with State. See them at your earliest convenience: they will slay you. (If you live in Chicago, the earliest convenience is going to be June 12 at the Mutiny, where we’re playing with them. I’ll do a post about that later.)

Here’s some pictures from Indianapolis, which was Punk Rock Night at the Melody Inn.

As you can see from the sidebar, we’re hitting St. Louis on Saturday. The venue is FUBAR, at 3108 Locust St. Show starts at 10.

Also we’re recording soon, and we have a special plan in the works. Stay tuned.

This will be the second night of our Indiana tour and is part of the Melody Inn‘s ongoing Punk Rock Night. This is very cool tradition that we are quite pleased to be part of.

Also playing that night will be our friends State and Applecore.

The show starts around 9:00. The Melody Inn is at 3826 N. Illinois Street in Indianapolis.

Hay Perro will be heading to the home state of Larry Bird and Dan Quayle for a two-date tour in May.

Our first date will be at phenomenally-named Uncle Fester’s House of Booze in Bloomington. Headlining will be the quite fantastic and almost unclassifiable State, as well as local legends Walking Ruins.

The show starts at 10:00 p.m.

We’ll be back at the Red Line Tap on Saturday, May 16.

Due to an unfortunate skateboarding accident, the Freeze have postponed their tour. Magnafux have canceled as well. Taking their place at the Red Line Tap will be legendary nardcore band, Dr. Know.

Things will probably get underway around 9:00. Also on the bill are The Repulsators.

Join us, the Red Line’s Saturday special is $2.50 Summit and 312 drafts.

First of all, thanks to everyone who came out to the Cobra Lounge show, and especially Chris Englert, I Love Rich, and M.O.T.O. It was a blast. I spilled more beer on myself than I normally do, and that’s a good thing.

Second, we’re playing at the Mutiny on Saturday, March 21 with Moshi Moshi Kaiju. I’m a little unclear on the details, but if you get there around 10 you should be in good shape. It’s free and they serve beer, so what the fuck. Step into the batter’s box.

The fates have aligned and placed us on a quite awesome show on Friday, February 27 at the Cobra Lounge.

We’ll play first around 9:00 and be followed by the juggernaut known as I Love Rich. Anyone who has spoken to a member of Hay Perro in the past two years knows that their rock prowess knows no bounds. After that, the Chicago institution M.O.T.O. will serenade the masses in their loud, fast, and awesome way.

In addition to being a great bill, the show is also FREE. The Cobra is at 235 N. Ashland. Come early, their tater tots are exceptional.

We’re playing an early show (~8:00 p.m.) at Phyllis’ Musical Inn this coming Friday, February 20. The show is a going away party for Venom Lords drummer and all-around great guy Scott Gibson who is leaving Chicago for the slightly lower sales tax of New York.

The bar is located at 1800 W. Division in Wicker Park. We’ll play first and the Venom Lords will follow. All attendees will be asked to embrace Scott in the fashion depicted below:

We’re returning to Cal’s Bar on Friday, February 13.

This is our second straight show with the self-described “quintet of fist fighting sleaze” known as Sister Switchblade. RedCity is also on the bill.

By now, you know that Cal’s is at 400 S. Wells in the South Loop and as usual things get underway around 9:00.
