UPDATES:
05.06.08 Well my broken finger is nearly back to full operational status so I added some new Shows and Flyers. I'll add more later in the week.
04.15.08 A few new Flyers added. I've got tons more to be added but I broke one of my fingers a few days ago and typing is a difficult chore right now so I won't be doing any more updates for at least two weeks, maybe longer. Don't expect anything until next month but I'll have tons added next update. Stay tuned.
03.29.08 Huge Shows page update. Also, just FYI, I killed the calihardcore.com myspace page. Contact me through e-mail if you need to get in touch.
03.12.08 Some Shows and a few Bands added.
02.24.08 New Shows added.
02.09.08 More Bands and Shows added.
02.08.08 Quick update to the Shows page. I've also added a ton of photos from the old Give Me Strength Records website which Duncan Moore has so graciously "donated" to this site. You can still order GMS Records through his myspace page. The photos are currently only viewable in the raw directory here and they are not attached to any HTML page. There's also a ton of bands that are not from California but there's some rad photos so I put them all up. I will eventually incorporate the photos more formally and properly into the site in the future but in the meantime check out the directory HERE and click around. The photos are organized by band. Many thanks to Duncan for letting me host the photos.
01.26.08 Some Reviews added. New photos coming soon.
01.19.08 Quick update to the Shows page.
01.15.08 A bunch of Flyers added including older ones from as far back as 2000.
01.11.08 A few Reviews and Shows added.
01.06.08 Tons of new Shows added. My goal for 2008 is to keep up with weekly updates. This year marks calihardcore.com's 10th anniversary! The site in other forms has been around a year or so longer but February will mark the 10 year point of being on it's own domain name. Thanks to everyone over the years for checking out the site and helping it grow. To everyone who's contributed in any way I thank you over and over again. California has a lot of killer hardcore bands right now and I know a lot of them aren't listed on here like they should be but I hope to get as many added as quickly as possible. If anyone of you reading have band links (myspace pages include), show info, photos, or anything to contribute please do so by e-mailing me at nick@calihardcore.com. This site survives because of dedicated fans helping me spread the word of the music we love. All information is appreciated and welcomed. Thanks and I hope everyone has a great 2008! Weekly updates return starting NOW!
