To celebrate the 20 year anniversary of Red Scare Records, we’ve partnered up with Toby Jeg to interview some of our favorite bands playing Red Scare’s Las Vegas takeover this weekend. Here are 5 questions with Devin Peralta from Cobra Skulls! Catch Cobra Skulls Saturday 9/28 at The Usual Place I was just with you and Cobra Skulls for Riot Fest this past weekend. Two great sets!

To celebrate the 20 year anniversary of Red Scare Records, we’ve partnered up with Toby Jeg to interview some of our favorite bands playing Red Scare’s Las Vegas takeover this weekend.

The annual celebration of everything shitty is returning for its 12th year to The Dive Bar September 27-28. Check it out! Las Vegas’s longest-runny music festival,” Life is Shit Festival, will return for its 12th year, Saturday, Sept. 28 at The Dive Bar, 4110 S. Maryland Pkwy. The festival is expanding this year to add the “Shitkicker Kickoff” pre-party, featuring country/blues artists (and country karaoke after the bands), Friday, Sept. 27, at The Dive.
