Rockin' Post-Punk Show - 11/16/09

While it all falls under rock's nebulous musical umbrella, post-punk music is not know for really "rocking" in any conventional sense. Or is it? No, it isn't but there are more than a few post-punk, punk, new wave, and alternative tracks that I suspect do, in fact, rock. Tonight I played more than a few of those more than a few.

The dead came alive, metaphorically, tonight on Post-Punk For Post-Punks as I celebrated many of the great artists who are no longer with us on this day after the Day of the Dead.
