everyone who keeps coming to these shows!
showISmonster takes pride in the all ages shows that are as lawless as possible and are as inclusive as possible; they are community oriented and supported. The smell of a show sticks to us like glue and our muscles stay sore and bruised, which we wear like battle scars . We thrive off the community which we are all apart of, where weekends are filled with familiar faces and the music pumps blood from our heads to our feets. Were the bands play with audiences falling all over them and everyone knows where they stand. Because we need the music as much as the music needs us. showISmonster understands that shows our homes and homes can be shows, and everyone feels infinite when the music is loud and the rules are unclear. showISmonster puts on shows because shows are necessary.
