OUR MISSION: After seeing how local scenes get ravaged by promoters- venues- and other external forces it became clear we need to set an example otherwise we'll be eaten up.
1] All proceeds from a show are returned to the performing bands. Ticket sales are split equally amongst the bands. Traveling and headliner gets a little extra out of pocket for gas/food. 2] Equipment and instruments will return with whoever brought them. (If you don't have a stack or mic we will find one for you). If you come to steal from musicians we will turn you inside out. 3] Protect Your Scene- people make scenes great. If you hold prejudices against any race/ethnicity, the queer/trans community– go ahead and stay home. Trying to hurt people, side eyed targeting, coming after minors in any type of way- will get you beat tf up.
4] Any and all art you see at facepalm shows or flyers will be made by a local CV artists. I'll make it myself if need be. No AI generated bullshit.
Facepalm advocates for quality over quantity. We aren't here to throw a show every weekend or compete with other booking agencies by planning our shows the same time as others. This is just to showcase wtf the central valley communities can do whilst supporting each other instead of trying to digest one another.
DM if you'd want to be apart of this. We need photographers, videographers, food vendors, security, new spaces to host small shows ect. Donations will utilized for venues/equipment. Non profit for me is just more profit for our community.
I was deep in my bag for these photos. Happened to stumble upon a skate crew from Madera filming a video part in my old stomping grounds. Just had to bust out the camera and results speak for themselves. I really need to shoot more skating, bmx, ect.
