Monday July 7th 9pm
Armageddon Shop & AS220 Present: "The Gits Movie"
@ AS220 115 Empire St Providence, RI
www.as220.org
Taqueria Pacifica open

The rousing and heartbreaking story of Seattle band The Gits, whose promising start was cut short by the tragic murder of spirited lead singer Mia Zapata.

Rumored to have been descended from Mexican revolutionary Emiliano Zapata, the incredibly magnetic frontwoman had a powerful, soulful voice that belied her inherent shyness and distinguished The Gits from other punk bands of that day.

This riveting documentary is part musical history and part murder mystery, brimming with rare performance footage dating from their Antioch College days through their subsequent move to Seattle just before the world's ears suddenly tuned into the emerging northwest music scene. The Gits would become an integral and influential part of the milieu if largely unsung in comparison to fellow Seattle bands like Nirvana and Soundgarden. But just as they were about to make it big, the band was dealt a mighty blow with the sudden, violent loss of their friend and band member whose lyrics eerily foreshadowed events to come.

Mia's murder became a rallying point for Seattle music scene, as the investigation ripped through the community with devastating results, leaving many female musicians feeling momentarily disempowered before turning their insecurity into anger and into a statement that would resonate with women the world over. A celebration of Mia's life as well as a comprehensive testament to the band's greatness as a whole. The film's interviews reflect the enormous respect and love Mia's peers had for her, and also the sadness over her absence that still haunts them today.

"Documentary specialist Kerri O'Kane details the rise of promising Seattle-based punk outfit The Gits, bringing their story to the screen for the benefit of Gits fans and anti-violence activists alike."
- The New York Times

"The Gits is a stirring portrait of one of the great, largely unknown voices in music and how her loss is still felt to this day. The Gits is a treasure trove."
- Film Threat Magazine

"This beats with more heart and terrific music than 99.9% of what comes from Hollywood these days. From Kerri O'Kane's direction to the music, everything works. "
- Ain't it Cool News

"O'Kane deftly navigates the tension that arises between the end of a career and the loss of a human being."
- The Austin Chronicle

THE PUNK ROCK FLEA MARKET - HOLIDAY EDITION !
It's that time again for the semi-annual (twice a year) PUNK ROCK FLEA MARKET. This time our most popular one - The Holiday Edition - the perfect spot to pick up that weird and unusual gift for your friends, family and loved ones. Our most popular reoccurring event/show/whatever (by far). The last two had close to 2500 visitors (!) and 100 tables of vendors. All proceeds raised will goto the purchase of necessary equipment and supplies to ensure that all ages shows continue to remain a reality at The First Unitarian Church in Philadelphia - mainly the remaining payment for our new liability insurance policy. Do not let the name lead you to believe that it's just punk records, clothes etc. - it's a full on flea market with everything from furniture, to laptops / computers , to stereo equipment, to handmade apparel, to vegan treats, information from various non profit groups, book stores, artists selling their work, bicycles & skateboards and whatever else we can fit onto the ballroom floor at The Starlight Ballroom.

In addition to the normal flea market stuff there will also be a full bar and food service kitchen to make the day go by a little faster.

PLEASE NOTE THAT NEW DATE !
At The Starlight Ballroom
460 North 9th Street (On 9th Street Between Spring Garden and Callowhill Streets)
Philadelphia, PA
