Rut's Concert Archive

Mainly Punk gigs. March 1980 to present day. A few missing. "I know I saw that band at that venue". Yeah - but when exactly was it? That can be tricky to find out.

By the late 1980s, DC's punk underground had produced dozens of bands, but only a handful of the musicians were women. This was not a fair representation of the DC punk community, however, as there were many women active throughout the scene, and this disparity had already become a much discussed topic with the ranks. The members of Fire Party were certainly aware of this situation, but while they were clear about their desire to play together, they tried to avoid the "all-girl band" tag that was so easily being handed out at that time.
