This kinda sucks!! Especially nowadays! Don't forget to support your local bands...

- Buy merch.
- Go to shows.
- Visit Bandcamp and pay for their music.
- Share their status', leave comments, subscribe to their media outlets.
- Add their music to your playlists.

There's loads more we can do to keep the vibrant underground scene alive, if you want to help, do your bit!! It's not much for the individual but it means a lot for the bands.

Take it easy!
