Broloaf – Every Show Joe

Artist Spotlight: Broloaf

May 10, 2019May 10, 2019 Every Show JoeArizona, Broloaf, Hardcore Punk, Punk, Rogue Bar, Scottsdale

In this artist spotlight, it is one that occasionally brings their own spotlight since I found them, Broloaf. They are a band put together by random chance for a contest. Lucky for us, they decided after the competition to keep these members together to continue spreading the fun. Broloaf is a band with East Coast Hardcore influence and WWE flair. They write songs mocking the bro culture to the style of that genre. Well performed, as the music experience and talent of the band members shines at any given performance.…

That Patriotic Meltdown

August 5, 2017May 21, 2020 Every Show JoeArizona, Broloaf, No Year, Old Fashion Assassin, Punk, Skull Drug, Tempe, Yucca Tap Room

The second half my Independence Day traditions for a few years running is the one packaged with Broloaf. They do their annual Independence Day Meltdown every year, usually the Saturday before or on July Fourth. For one, if you have seen a Broloaf show then you know they bring the boom. For two, you get a package with great bands joining them for the celebration. This night was opened up with an old familiar, Skull Drug. It was their usually high energy, fast paced set. Though this year with a…

Bro, Don’t Call Me Bro

April 2, 2017April 2, 2017 Every Show JoeArizona, Broloaf, Metal, Punk, Sanitation Squad, Sreamin Yeehaws, Tempe, Warheads, We Might Be Wasted, Yucca Tap Room

There is not quite a show like a Broloaf show. I could name it that because of the presentation. The confetti, the beer bongs, and the story skits they put on through any given show. Though actually, it includes the bands that are booked with them. I find myself seeing fantastic bands, not always of the punk genre, playing on the bill with Broloaf. This is what leaves me anticipating anytime Broloaf plays, with no exception tonight. No stranger to me or this site, We Might Be Wasted kicked off…

People like lists I hear, so I’m putting together two. The first of which is to spotlight some of my favorite music released in the past year in Phoenix that I managed to catch. I struggled to keep it a best of ten, so I made it fifteen. I’m sure it may come to a shock for some it isn’t a punk band atop it, but my favorite genre does sit within in a couple spots. Be sure to check out all these artists and catch them at a show…

A Rebel Riot At the Yucca Tap

November 6, 2016May 20, 2020 Every Show Joe2 Tone Lizard Kings, Broloaf, Less than Jake, LightSpeedGo, No Gimmick, Red City Radio, Russian Girlfriends, The Bombpops, Venomous Pinks, Western Settings, Yucca Tap Room

This was a night to remember at the Yucca Tap Room, rather part of outside the Yucca Tap! It was a great mix of locals and touring bands, bringing out more people who could fit in the regular venue. It sure doesn’t hurt that the headliner is one of two bands I’ve put in ink on my skin. The weather was perfect, and the PBR was flowing! The show kicked off with No Gimmick, and the charismatic Johnny Gimmick doing what he does best. Some of the best banter of…
