Announcing “No Slam Dancing No Stage Diving No Spikes” at WORD Jersey City

city-gardens-book

UPDATE: This event has been rescheduled for Monday, April 7th.

Until the early 1990s, City Gardens hosted a stellar array of bands at a space in the middle of Trenton, New Jersey. Now, the venue’s history has been told via an oral history, No Slam Dancing No Stage Diving No Spikes, by Amy Yates Wuelfing and Steven DiLodovico. We’re especially happy to be presenting this event with the book’s authors, as this book helps shed light on (and pay tribute to) a vital part of the area’s punk scene in the 80s and 90s.  Additionally, one of our editors will totally talk your ear off about the time he saw Endpoint and Holy Rollers there in 1994 if you let him.

This event will be held on April 7th at WORD Jersey City (123 Newark Avenue, Jersey City, NJ), beginning at 7:30 pm. RSVP on Facebook.
