Black N’ Blue Bowl 2012 to Unite Generations As One!

YES YES YES! Rancid is the headliner of this year's Black N’ Blue Bowl 2012!

Rancid, along with Sheer Terror (the band released a very strong EP in 2011), Youth Of Today (allegedly their last show ever), Outburst, among other pioneers of the genre, will join forces on one of the most intense Hardcore Punk shows of the year.

The final line-up for this year’s mighty Black N’ Blue Bowl was announced tonight Tuesday March 13, on the East Village Radio show "Black N Blue Takeover".
Black N Blue Productions never ceases to impress year after year, with a roster of the most beloved Hardcore bands in existence, along with great young opening bands, plus special guests.

A very special tribute to Warzone’s Raybeez, one of New York Hardcore’s fallen heroes, will take place at this festival. The tribute will be a Warzone set done by the band’s remaining members, plus some of the NYHC all-stars.

As mentioned by Cuz Joe on the radio show, BN’B productiones were approached by Warzone members to have such tribute take place. No better event than the bowl, as it continues strong with another successful year.

The bowl will take place once again at Webster Hall (formerly known as The Ritz), in New York city on May 19th 2012.
