Us over here in Echo Park were recently treated to a pretty cool visit from an LA native who’s touring & cooking his way to the top. I’m talking about Toscan Elrod, who is the current tour manager for GBH. Yes GBH, the hardcore punk band that has produced kick ass albums such as City Baby Attacked By Rats & City Baby’s Revenge. You don’t get more punk rock than these true schoolers.

They’ve kept at it for over 30 years and they’ve been touring consistently during that span, most recently on the strength of there newest album Perfume and Piss. The album is reminiscent of their earlier work and just so happened to be mixed by the well known Lars Frederiksen of Rancid.

If any of you bloglin goons are in Europe, Japan, Australia or New Zealand, then check for their next tour which goes from September thru December. As for Toscan, he’s been hitting the road hard and has some culinary treats lined up. Good luck with your future endeavors and oh yea…Those of your looking, we still got a few of that Banned in Moscow tee but not for very much longer!
