Lookout - From the Lookout! Records newsletter: "OUT JUNE 17: LOOKOUT PUNK 7"S COMPILATION VOL 1 Details: 47 songs, 7 original singles, never before on CD from the Lookout history of invention, humor and talent backed onto one compact disc. The YEASTIE GIRLZ were doin' their thing (all-girl a capella rap) long before Northern State, and they even got to share the stage w/ the likes of Fugazi. ISOCRACY were legends in the Gilman scene as they made every show a messy party and members went on to later form GREEN DAY and SAMIAM but you know that already right? Plus you get the debuts of CORRUPTED MORALS, PLAID RETINA, SURROGATE BRAINS AND KAMALA & THE KARNIVORES

AFI Single Problems! - From AFI:

To our fans,

As some of you may already have discovered, there has been a manufacturing error with one of the formats of our new single, whereby CD1 was pressed with the tracks intended for CD2.

CD2 is unaffected by this, and contains the correct tracks.

We're really sorry to all our fans that have already bought CD1 - this mistake was down to good old-fashioned human error at the pressing plant.

The correct version of CD1 will be in the shops on Tuesday, June 10th and everyone who has already bought this CD will be able to exchange it without any problems.

We love coming to the UK and want all our British fans to know how much we appreciate their support.

Allister back in the UK already - After just completing their euro jaunt with LTJ they're now coming back later in the month for the Something Corporate tour. This looks like a great bill with Lucky 7 already playing! Check out www.allisterrock.com or www.feelingluckypunk.com for the dates and details
