Post Present Medium 25 Year — Night I

“Twenty-five years of records the algorithm never quite caught. The…”

Brendan Fowler believed an independent label could keep the underground alive for twenty-five years by not flinching on any of the small things — the art direction, the pressings, the room you choose to throw the party in. So Post Present Medium did it. Twenty-five years of records, books, and shows that the algorithm has never quite been able to surface. The 25-year anniversary lands at The Smell, downtown's all-ages alley venue, three nights in a row. Night I opens with Behavior, Flaccid Mojo, Early Dog, BARR (Fowler's own project), and My Generation, with DJ Roy Tatum holding the room between sets. The Smell has no chairs and no marquee and you find the entrance by the painted door behind the parking lot. The bands play to about two hundred people who already know each other or are about to. Three-day weekend pass is $50; single-night door is $20. Doors at eight. The rest of the lineup runs Friday and Saturday.
