Where It Begins!
Was fun reading everyone's comments and memories about xPOTAx and to hear what it meant to everyone.
Not to be dramatic but it IS weird to think back on this essentially being the first step into what it is we're doing now.
Moral of the story: go on an adventure and create something and see where it takes you in life.
The night before @hellfestdotcom we have MANY of the artists making their way to NJ and swinging by New Kensington on their way. Two tour packages rolled into one for the price of a single show!
Excited to have @ipromisedtheworld back to the Underground alongside scene vets/legends in @harvest.hc and @nehemiahmetal and local support from Erie, PA'S @humananimal814 ... not to be forgotten is the debut of young bucks @rosasharin and @guiltxseattle
Ticket link in bio!
HEY!!! THIS IS BIG!!!
We could be wrong but we are pretty sure this is the only place that you can grab tickets to Pittsburgh's largest independent Music festival @fourchordmusicfestival for a nice, flat $100 cash.
You can grab these at either location... and a nice little side bonus... You can now also purchase tickets for shows at @preservingconcerts at both locations as well!
YINZ EVER PIT ON A SOCCER STADIUM FIELD?!??
Pittsburgh's largest and FULLY INDEPENDENT music festival (those don't really exist anymore) got the itch to get a little HARDCORE this year and they knew who to call.
I can promise you this will be your only chance to see FACEWRECK in 2026 because I don't got time for anything other than the chance to say I wrote songs about moshing in your 40s and got to play a stadium because of it.
Early bird tickets to live tomorrow morning. If you are Pittsburgh Hardcore come up with the cash and witness a once in a lifetime showcase of the real deal on the big stage.
GRAND OPENING: SATURDAY MAY 2ND
10 AM - 10 PM
1431 Potomac Ave Dormont PA 15216
The amount of headache we endured to make this happen is indescribable. We hope you all enjoy the effort we put into making this happen!
Stay tuned throughout the week for more info and sneak previews!
@converge busted out an all-time favorite of mine from 1997 on the Main Stage without even making me beg!
Was about two seconds away from jumping over the balcony Hell Fest 2000 VHS style to get in this pit.
If all shows were like this... we'd do it forever. Amazing crowd, great camaraderie with the bands and their crews and getting to see songs you've been jamming for DECADES getting played on the stage you built for 1000 people to enjoy... you can't beat it!
100% had these lyrics in my AIM profile at one point to let my crush know what was up.
More videos to come.
Favorite band of 2026 so far @humiliateisgreat ... shout out to @hockeyxdad for bringing a whole day's worth of up and coming regional Hardcore bands together.
These are the kind of shows you're going to wish you got to say you were at when these bands start catching the hype they deserve.
