Posted by hayley on Friday, January 27, 2012 at 3:50 PM (PST)

Every once in a while the punk rock geniuses here at Dying Scene like to unleash some punk rock trivia to enlighten and enhance the minds of you, the readers. Today’s trivia is about Dead Kennedys and one of their celebrity fans.

Yes you read that headline correctly. Photographer Irish Willis Peele was shooting pictures of the punk band Frontline and Dead Kennedys at a show in Virginia in the 80′s. Does the dude in the middle look familiar? Apparently it’s none other than the Daily Show host Jon Stewart, who was a student at William and Mary at the time this photo was taken.

Photo Gallery: Old Man Markley, No Use For a Name, and NOFX at The Fillmore. San Francisco. January 20, 2012

Posted by milhouse on Friday, January 27, 2012 at 2:53 PM (PST)

Last weekend NOFX played a set of sold-out shows at the legendary Fillmore Theatre in San Francisco. Support for Friday night consisted of The Bombpops, Old Man Markley, and No Use For a Name, while Saturday’s lineup changed with Ellwood, Old Man Markley, and Lagwagon.

I was lucky enough to make the Friday night show, unfortunately I missed the majority of The Bombpops’ set, due to idiot San Francisco drivers.

As I arrived, I quickly settled in, beer and camera in hand, for Old Man Markley. The band opened up with a great drinking song, “The Party Shack”, and warmed the stage with other tracks such as “Guts ‘n’ Teeth”, “Living & Learning”, and more.

End of set. Beer refill. Repeat. This time with No Use For a Name.

The guys set the tone with “Not Your Savior”, and followed with some favorites like “Dumb Reminders” and “Coming Too Close”.

What can I say about NOFX’s set. It was pretty amazing. Midway through, the guys slowed things down with a great cover of Rancid’s “Radio”, before Fat Mike ripped into “The Quitter”. And no night would be complete without Eric Melvin amusing the crowd with his wonderful accordion skills.

You can view a bunch of photos from Old Man Markley’s, No Use For a Name’s, and NOFX’s sets here.
