A post-premier party for Salad Days: A Decade of Punk in Washington, DC
$15 Mainstage / Doors at 8:00

In 1985, there was a younger punk scene forming in Washington, D.C. around Sammich Records, a label co-founded by Amanda MacKaye, the younger sister of Dischord Records co-founder Ian Mackaye. The first Sammich release was a split 7" EP called Thanks. One side was a young band from Arlington called Mission Impossible (featuring a young Dave Grohl on drums) and on the other side was a new band out of Wilson High School called Lunchmeat, who would soon change their name to Soulside. With releases on Sammich, and later Dischord, Soulside soon became a popular addition to the DC punk scene.
