Big thanks to everyone who came out for Punk Prom 2008. We’d like to especially thank all our volunteers: without you, the show(s) could not go on!

If you got your prom photo taken, you can see it at the
Invasion of the PromBots gallery.

Yes, it’s a glamorous job, but someone has to do it:

The Placebo is moving just a few yards down the alley between 3rd and 4th but we have heavy gear and more than a few boxes so the more people help out, the better. We will feed you if you show up and work!

Where: 47 W 3rd, Eureka [map]
When: 2pm, Sunday March 2nd

Stick around for the Volunteers’ meeting directly afterwards and help plan the shows for April and beyond.

Our 2008 comeback has reached the dizzying height of two shows a month! We’re looking to graduate to four shows, but can only do it if you (and your friends) help out. Show up early and volunteer at shows. Stay late and help clean up. Flyer your school. Come to the meetings.

OK, now for the good stuff:

• Feb 23rd: PUNK - Social Concern (chico), The Floating Corpses (SF) and The Radical Devil
• March 1st: ALL AGES ALLIANCE presents a kickass all-day show at the Fortuna Vets Center. You should help them out, too!
• March 7th: METAL - Slaughterbox (red bluff), Antarctica, Tidal Decay and Emilia’s Rose
• March 22nd: ROCK - Steel Toed Slippers, Kill the Switch, This Dying Wish and TBA
• Early April: Super Sekrit Show, details forthcoming
• April 25th: The ROBOTICK PUNK PROM ($5 with costume / $7 without) - The Social Ills, The Psycho Nubs and many more TBA

All Placebo shows are $5 and at the Ink People [map] unless otherwise mentioned. Annual two-dollar membership is always required.
Always ALL-AGES and DRUG AND ALCOHOL FREE

It’s been a while, but it’s time to start up our 2x monthly meetings again. It’s the 3rd Sunday of the month, so we’ll be meeting in Arcata. We’ve got several upcoming shows to plan for, and we’ll be recapping the 2007 Annual Retreat. Curious about what’s taking so long with getting our building open again? Here’s the place to find out.

The Placebo Annual Retreat is an afternoon we take to plan for the next year, figuring out what works and what doesn’t. It’s also casual: people bring food, White Elephant gifts, and hang out in addition to getting business done.

When: Friday, December 21 (Solstice)
- eating/schmoozing starts at 1pm, serious stuff at 3pm
- will end at 6pm or earlier, plenty of time for people to hit the Dragged By Horses show at Mosgo’s
