NEO-NAZI CONCERT COMING TO PHILLY NEXT SATURDAY

We start 2015 off wondering how in the hell a neo-Nazi band associated with the Pagans MC is going to play a gig at the clubhouse of the Outlaws MC.

Anti-racist organizations are responding to the news that a neo-Nazi band associated with the Atlantic City “Skinheads” are to play at the clubhouse of the Philadelphia chapter of the Outlaws Motorcycle Club.

According to an online flyer being distributed, the Atlantic City, NJ-based neo-Nazi band Aggravated Assault is to perform in Philadelphia next Saturday, and in a rarity for neo-Nazi concerts, the flyer included a location for the event: 2103 E. Somerset Street, in Philadelphia. Past events promoted online have listed this location as the Outlaws Clubhouse. 

Founded in 1935, the Outlaws have chapters across the country. The Philadelphia chapter was in the spotlight in 2009 when state and local police nabbed several of it’s members in a methamphetamine drug ring.

The announcement of the venue has generated as much conversation as the show itself, as Aggravated Assault, a band that has been around off and on for almost thirty years and is known for songs like “The Eternal Jew, “Fetch The Rope” and “Sieg Heil”, are best associated with another motorcycle club the Pagans. It is not known whether or not this will have an impact on the show itself.

Meanwhile, an anti-racist Tumblr page run by an anti-racist activist is warning about the show taking place and encouraging an action to oppose the event, as is Philadelphia Antifa on their website.

The show will come hours after a local Tea Party group will hold a pro-police rally at Independence Hall in response to the protests against police violence across the country.
