Ruthie's Inn's Blurbs |
About me:
Ruthie's Inn was a small club on San Pablo Avenue in Berkeley, California that was instrumental in supporting the east bay punk scene and eventually spawned a thriving thrash/metal scene from 1983 - 1987. Many bands played their first gigs at this venue and helped pave the way and supported an incredibly vibrant community of social misfits and serious musicians who had something to say -- a great venue that has established itself in the annals of punk and metal history.
Wes Robinson, a visionary and infamous promoter, was responsible for providing this venerable niteclub to the second wave of new and established punk bands from Bad Brains, Dead Kennedy’s, Social Distortion, Bad Religion, Flipper, MDC and DOA to Code of Honor, Verbal Abuse, Fang, Special Forces, DRI and many others. Later on, this eventually segued into a weekly ritual that showcased such seminal thrash/metal bands as Metallica, Slayer, and Exodus.
Wes, now in his 70’s, is working on a documentary called “Remembering Ruthie’s Inn”. A reunion show is slated for September 23rd, 2006. There will be 12 bands, a tattoo art show, foto and vintage flier gallery, and display boards showcasing Ruthie’s Inn history. Interviews will take place and everything will be filmed for the documentary, so get ready to share some stories and meet up with some familiar faces and great bands that will take you down memory lane. All Ages Welcome. Please help spread the word. Read your bulletins for updates.
