Big Smile Presents ECEK, Aztlan Underground, El Haru Kuroi, and Aftergloam @ Space 2710, November 6th. This show review was written by Matthew Montanez. " The Big Smile show, November 6th at Space 2710, was complete with a variety of musical styles and artwork. 2710 proved once again to be an intimate venue where performers were able to be up close and personal with their audience; standing room was limited as the crowd tightened up around each band."

Adam Rebelius
Interview writen by Jonny Havoc. Adam is a solo artist punk band. "Well to me, punk was and is about bashing out three chords, and singing what's on your mind and having it be honest and come straight from the heart. It's as much of an attitude as it is a style or genre of music."

A lot has changed since the last time we have talked…
It's been a little while since our last blog. Since the last post "The Launch of the new BSM", a lot has changed with the website, and a lot of new reviews are available to read. Here are some things we have added or changed to the website that you will love: You can now leave comment's on all our reviews without having to log in. Bands: you can post all your show dates to our concert calendar which is located on our front page and seen by hundreds. Also, now when you are signed up as a reader and logged in, you can upload multiple photos and update your news feed. I'd like to introduce you to my personal favorite new feature: the option to leave comments on writer profiles allowing writer/reader interaction. This may not mean much to you, but being a writer, getting comments, and not being able to respond was a real bummer! So go and leave some comments on your favorite reviews, post some show dates of your favorite bands or just check out the site for some new reviews.
